What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 6 February 2024

Landulph School is a happy and welcoming place which sits at the heart of village life. Pupils thoroughly enjoy school. Staff know them well. This helps pupils feel safe and well cared for. Teachers make their expectations of behaviour clear. Classrooms are calm and orderly. Pupils engage in their learning well and work hard. Bullying is rare. Pupils say adults in the school help them if they are ever worried. Central to Landulph's ethos are its values of honesty, friendship, loyalty and respect. It promotes these whenever possible. For instance, the annual lunch for grandparents develops pupils' empathy and respect for those from different generations. The school places a strong emphasis on pupil leadership. Older pupils are excellent role models. For example, they read stories to their younger peers at lunchtimes during 'Book Club'. The school council gives pupils a voice at both school and trust level. Through outdoor learning and residential visits, pupils learn the importance of resilience and teamwork. The school has made many recent improvements. It now has an ambitious curriculum from early years to Year 6. Pupils learn more than in the past. They are well prepared for their next stage of education.

What the school should improve

  • A few foundation subjects are in the early stages of implementation. Pupils have gaps in their knowledge as a result of previous weaknesses in the curriculum. The trust needs to further refine curriculum planning to take into account pupils' gaps in knowledge and ensure these are addressed.
  • In some subjects, the curriculum is too new to see its impact. As a result, the school is not sure how well pupils are learning in these subjects from early years to Year 6. The trust needs to ensure they monitor how well pupils are learning in these subjects so that they can be sure of its impact and make changes accordingly.
