What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 11 June 2024
Leaders have established a powerful vision, 'digging deep, aiming high'. This inspires pupils to live out this vision through their exemplary conduct and attitudes to learning. Kippax North Primary School is a friendly and happy place to learn. One pupil summed up the views of many others, saying, 'Our school is fulfilling because it fills you with joy and you can be yourself.' The school has established an exciting curriculum for pupils to study. This motivates pupils to be resilient when learning something new or mastering a new skill. Pupils extend their skills by taking on many leadership roles within the school. These roles inspire pupils to contribute to their school community. Pupils are rightly proud of their school. Pupils' behaviour is exemplary. Adults apply their high expectations of behaviour and routines consistently. Pupils manage and regulate their own behaviour, whether adults are present or not. Pupils recognise the importance of their learning, so lessons are very calm and focused. Attendance is better than national averages and continues to improve. The school makes sure that pupils and families know that it is important to attend school.
What the school should improve
- Some aspects of the curriculum are in the earlier stages of development. Some pupils have gaps in their knowledge and understanding in these areas. The school should accelerate curriculum development across all subjects to ensure that pupils knowledge and understanding are consistently strong in all subjects.
- Some aspects of the curriculum for PSHE are not sufficiently tailored to the needs of pupils. Pupils need some knowledge at an earlier stage to enable them to grasp and understand more complex problems later. The school should strengthen the curriculum for PSHE so that pupils are prepared to understand more complex problems later in school.
