What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 28 November 2023
Pupils at Misson Primary School are polite and friendly. They enjoy learning in a calm environment. By the time pupils reach upper key stage 2, they are confident and ready for the next stage of their educational journey. Expectations of behaviour and work are high. Most pupils rise to these expectations. They behave well in the classroom and on the playground. Pupils develop 'resilience, independence and self-belief,' in step with the school's vision. The school brings learning to life through a range of experiences. These include annual productions and residential visits. The school is ambitious to meet the needs of all pupils. This ambition is being realised. Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) enjoy accessing all activities. This includes after-school clubs for football, baking and gardening. Pupils feel happy and safe at school. This leads to high attendance. Pupils know that they can talk to an adult if anything is worrying them. From pre-school to Year 6, relationships between children and staff are positive. Parents and carers are enthusiastic about the school. As one parent typically commented, 'A fantastic school which develops well-rounded children. It focuses on enrichment as well as academic progress.'
What the school should improve
- In a few subjects, the school has not precisely identified what knowledge pupils are expected to know and in what order. As a result, pupils' knowledge in these subjects is not as strong. The school needs to complete its work on refining the curriculum so that staff understand what pupils must know and remember in every subject.
- The school's plans for teaching British values are not yet fully developed. As a result, some pupils do not have an age-appropriate depth of understanding of the British values they have been taught. The school should ensure that all pupils have an age-appropriate understanding of the key values that are important in Britain today.
