Manland Primary School

What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 5 June 2024

The school values of 'inspiration, aspiration, responsibility' are embedded in day-to-day school life. Pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), demonstrate highly positive attitudes towards their learning. They remember and build on what they learn. Pupils achieve high standards across the curriculum. The strong culture of learning is exemplified through the weekly celebration assemblies. These motivate pupils to work hard and celebrate others' achievements. Pupils are happy and thrive in the school. This is the result of the high expectations and clear routines that are in place. Children in Reception listen carefully and share equipment in harmony with others. Pupils behave exceptionally well in lessons and during social times. They support each other, demonstrate kindness, and form strong, trusting relationships with adults. Pupils have a strong understanding of democracy and link this to the election of house captains and members of the pupil parliament. The pupil parliament takes an active role in improving the environment for pupils. They organise events and raise money for charities. The pupil parliament members visit the Houses of Parliament and speak with the local MP. Pupils talk knowledgeably about their understanding of equality and diversity.
