What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 21 September 2022

Meadow Primary is a happy school which values every pupil. Pupils go about their school day smiling. This includes the two-year-olds who have just started in the brand-new nursery. Relationships are strong. Pupils show an interest in all they do, whether performing in the choir at the O2 Arena or participating in regular swimming lessons in the school pool. Adults expect pupils to try their best. Leaders have recently introduced a new behaviour policy. Even though it is early days, pupils know what leaders expect of them. They behave well. Pupils show the learning behaviours in lessons that leaders want them to, such as resilience and resourcefulness. They love winning 'magic minutes' for doing the right thing. Teachers deal with low-level disruption promptly. Bullying is rare. The school council has just published a pupil version of the anti- bullying policy. Together with lessons and assemblies, this makes sure that pupils understand how to recognise and act if bullying were to happen. Leaders take bullying seriously. They investigate thoroughly and put detailed support programmes in place. Pupils feel safe.

What the school should improve

  • In foundation subjects, staff do not adapt their teaching sufficiently for pupils with SEND. This means that, in these subjects, some pupils with SEND do not achieve as well as they could. Leaders should ensure that staff have the training and support they need so that they know how best to help pupils with SEND to learn well in all subjects.
  • In foundation subjects, teachers are not always clear about the most important knowledge that pupils need to learn. This means that teachers cannot build on pupils' learning consistently well over time. Leaders should ensure that teachers know what the key information is that pupils should retain.
