Malvern Way Infant and Nursery School

What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 25 February 2025

Pupils flourish in this welcoming school. They benefit from respectful and nurturing relationships with adults and other pupils. Pupils feel happy and valued. They know that if they have a worry, however small, they can speak to an adult who will listen and help them. Pupils' behaviour in lessons is impeccable. Pupils who need additional help with their behaviour receive quick and effective support. The school teaches pupils about the importance of 'helping hands'. This helps them to understand responsibility. Pupils demonstrate this value by looking after Patrick, the school's tortoise. The school has the highest expectations for pupils. Pupils achieve highly across the curriculum. They are proud of the high-quality work they produce in different subjects. For instance, Year 2 pupils beam with pride as they play 'London's Burning' on ocarinas, demonstrating an excellent understanding of pitch and tempo. Pupils enjoy the many opportunities to develop roles of responsibility. For example, 'eco- warriors' work hard to save paper for recycling. They do this because they want to look after the environment. The school ensures that as many pupils as possible enjoy a wide range of activities that develop their talents and interests. These include karate, street dance and i-Rock clubs.
