What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 22 October 2024
Mobberley C of E Primary School sits at the heart of its village community. Pupils, including children in the early years, are happy and proud to attend this school. Each morning, pupils arrive at school pleased to see their friends. They receive a very warm welcome from staff who know them well. As a result, pupils feel well cared for, and they are ready to learn. In lessons, pupils' behaviour is exemplary. Pupils, including children in the Reception class, are very enthusiastic learners. They are highly attentive when listening to their teachers. Pupils want to achieve well, and they do. They benefit from the school's high expectations and a well-thought-out curriculum. Pupils leave this school well prepared for the next stage of their education. This includes pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Pupils flourish from the strong pastoral support and far-reaching personal development offer that the school provides. There is an emphasis on competitive sport, and the boys' and girls' football teams are especially proud of their successes. There are plentiful opportunities for pupils to cultivate their wider interests and talents. For example, pupils can choose from a range of clubs, including art, choir, poetry and digital wizards. Pupils have a deep understanding of the importance of equality. They grow to have a strong moral compass. Pupils embrace diversity. They ensure that everyone is accepted for who they are. Parents and carers were overwhelmingly positive about the school.
What the school should improve
- On occasion, the activities that teachers design do not enable some pupils to learn in sufficient depth. This hinders these pupils from building as rich a body of subject knowledge across the curriculum as they could. The school should refine its curriculum thinking to ensure that there are greater opportunities for these pupils to apply their knowledge in depth.
