What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 28 November 2023

There are high expectations for all pupils at Lisle Marsden Church of England Primary Academy. This large primary school is nurturing. Staff know pupils well. Pupils' emotional well-being is a high priority. They benefit from specialist staff to support this. The school rabbit brings joy to many pupils. Pupils benefit from a variety of clubs, experiences and opportunities to develop their character. The school strives to remove barriers to learning for pupils. As a result, pupils achieve well. The Christian ethos is woven through school life. Pupils are encouraged by the school values. They refer to them when discussing work that they are proud of. Pupils' wider development is a real strength of the school. Pupils behave well. They are respectful towards each other. They show consideration of their peers. Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) benefit from the inclusive nature of the school. They are included in lessons and wider opportunities. The school teaches pupils how to use the internet safely. Pupils confidently discuss the risks they may face online. Pupils have a weekly 'big question'. They reflect on this during their collective worship time. This benefits their moral and spiritual growth.

What the school should improve

  • In a small number of subjects, lessons do not provide regular opportunities for pupils to revisit prior learning. As a result, some pupils do not remember the important knowledge they need to be ready for the next stage of learning. The school should ensure pupils have planned opportunities to revisit the identified important knowledge in the curriculum.
