What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 31 January 2024
Leasowes Primary is an exceptional and vibrant school which fully lives out its values of: respect, aspiration, enjoyment, courage, collaboration and love. Pupils here thrive, as leaders' high expectations for them are realised in all aspects of the school's provision. Pupils say they look forward to coming to school, and they talk enthusiastically about how all adults at Leasowes help them to do their best. Pupils are polite and considerate to each other and to visitors. They understand what leaders expect of them and how they can support each other in their choices and behaviours. This starts in the early years, where leaders support the children in establishing good routines and ensure that all children have a highly effective start to their learning and personal development. Safeguarding pupils is an absolute priority for leaders. All pupils spoke confidently about being able to talk to trusted adults should they have a concern. They know that such concerns would be taken seriously and resolved. Pupils enjoy the wealth of opportunities that leaders have created for them, such as interesting visits and a wide range of clubs. They are proud of the roles they hold, such as reading ambassadors, their work with local charities and the school's status as a 'Rights Respecting School'.
