What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 13 March 2023

Manor Park Primary School is a wonderfully warm, happy and welcoming place. Staff have pupils' best interests at the core of all they do. They help pupils to achieve academically and flourish as unique individuals. Their dedication, compassion and genuine care helps pupils to learn and keeps them safe. Staff expect every pupil to work hard and behave well. They ensure this happens by teaching pupils how to behave from the moment they join the school. The SOAR values of 'self-sufficiency, originality, positive attitudes and resilience' are ingrained in the school culture. Pupils know and understand these values and model them in their behaviour. They attend happily and are proud to be part of their school. Pupils learn about bullying through the anacronym 'STOP'. They know that this means 'several times on purpose'. Staff are vigilant, intervene promptly if issues arise and check to ensure that none reoccur. All pupils benefit from an expansive and diverse curriculum that extends far beyond the academic. The fulness of this offer helps pupils to develop their confidence and character. Pupils willingly take on responsibilities and leadership roles, so that they can contribute to their school. Staff listen to what pupils have to say and take their views seriously. All of this contributes to a cohesive and vibrant community.

What the school should improve

  • In some foundation subjects, leaders have not precisely identified the small building blocks of learning that pupils need to understand and remember as they move through their curriculum journey. As a result, the detail of what pupils should learn is sometimes left to teacher interpretation of the broader curriculum objectives as teachers do not know the specific knowledge that pupils need to acquire. Consequently, some pupils cannot link their ideas together and build on what they already know. Leaders should ensure that the ongoing curriculum development work carefully identifies the important knowledge within each curriculum subject, so that all teachers can help pupils secure the foundational knowledge they need.
