What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 22 October 2024
Loxdale Primary is a special place where pupils truly do 'grow together'. The staff, including Monty the school dog, provide exceptional care and support. This makes a significant contribution to pupils' well-being. They feel happy and safe. Pupils describe with pride the range of opportunities they have that enable them to flourish. Pupils understand the values the school promotes, for example being positive and empathetic. They appreciate how the school inspires them to be the best they can be. The school has high expectations for all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Staff have an accurate understanding of pupils' needs and provide effective support to pupils in lessons and at social times. This helps pupils to succeed in their learning and personal development. Pupils enjoy great success in many areas of the curriculum. However, in a small number of subjects, they do not always learn what is most important. Pupils are highly respectful to staff, visitors and each other. They behave extremely well in lessons and as they move around the school. During social times, they support each other through a variety of roles and responsibilities.
What the school should improve
- In a small number of subjects, the work pupils complete does not always help them to learn what is most important. As a result, pupils' knowledge in these subjects is not as good as it could be. The school should continue to refine the curriculum to ensure that, in all subjects, the work pupils complete helps them to learn what is most important.
