What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 1 October 2024

Meadow View Primary is a diverse and inclusive school. Adults have high ambition for all pupils. Pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities, remember the knowledge they learn. Pupils' mental health and well-being are a priority. Pupils live by the school's three rules of 'Aim High, Be Safe, Be Kind'. These rules help pupils to feel safe. The school welcomes pupils, including those who join throughout the year, warmly. Pupils benefit from the nurturing environment. Pupils gain confidence because staff help them when they need additional support in lessons. Pupils are happy to come to school. They attend school well. Leaders work tirelessly to support families who need additional help. The school has built strong and trusting relationships with the local community. There are many leadership opportunities for pupils. They have roles as reading ambassadors, classroom buddies, sports crew, young interpreters and house captains. Pupils are tolerant, respectful and kind to each other. They become confident ambassadors who are proud of their school. Pupils take part in a range of clubs at lunchtime and after school. They experience a broad range of carefully planned activities and go on a wide range of trips, including trips to universities, science museums and sporting competitions. These experiences give pupils opportunities they would not otherwise have. A range of visitors, including authors, add depth to the curriculum. Pupils are inspired and ambitious for the future.

What the school should improve

  • Some areas of the curriculum are not yet as well sequenced and delivered as others. In these subjects, pupils achieve less well. Leaders should continue to embed and monitor the recent changes to all areas of the curriculum so that pupils achieve highly across all subjects.
