Liberty Primary

What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 20 June 2023

Pupils recognise and celebrate their rich and diverse community within an exceptionally strong culture of acceptance and respect. There are ample opportunities for pupils to develop their character, for example by taking on leadership responsibilities and raising money for charity. They regularly participate in community projects that bring pupils and their families together, such as the summer fair, and cultural and religious celebrations. Pupils at Liberty are kept safe and happy. They enjoy very warm relationships with their teachers and one another. They say disputes of any kind are rare, but if they occur, teachers help them to resolve any differences quickly. Leaders are ambitious for pupils and expect them to achieve highly. The curriculum is typically well designed and enables pupils to develop a depth of understanding in different subjects. Children in the early years get off to an exceptional start to their education. Across the school, pupils produce work of good quality and are well prepared for the next stage of their education.

What the school should improve

• In some subjects and year groups, teachers' explanations are not fully accurate and errors and misconceptions in pupils' learning are not identified or corrected. In these instances, pupils' understanding is more limited. Leaders should ensure that staff have sufficient training and support to consistently implement the curriculum in different subjects.
