What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 24 September 2024
At Marlborough Primary School, uniqueness is celebrated. Pupils are proud to talk about their different beliefs and backgrounds. They focus on what makes them the same rather than what makes them different. This means that pupils demonstrate exemplary character, champion inclusivity and advocate for each other. Pupils readily contribute to their wider community through regular fundraising events. The school's vision is that all pupils 'excel, enjoy and achieve'. Leaders have high ambitions for pupils. Pupils' successes are reflected across the curriculum, including in national assessments. They take pride in their achievements and are happy coming to school. Pupils' behaviour is excellent. Children in early years are supported to transition well and quickly adopt established routines modelled by older pupils. Pupils know their trusted adults and feel that their concerns will be dealt with swiftly. As a result, pupils feel safe and are kept safe at school. Pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), benefit from all the school has to offer. All pupils can develop their interests through the wide range of clubs and enrichment opportunities, including ukulele, skateboarding and chess. All pupils receive music lessons in addition to learning an instrument as part of an ensemble from Year 2 onwards.
