What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 21 March 2023
Mylor Bridge Community Primary School is a happy, welcoming place. Pupils enjoy their learning. They enthusiastically take part in their lessons and work hard. Leaders have high expectations of pupils' behaviour. There is a strong focus on teaching pupils to be respectful and kind. Pupils are polite and courteous. As a result, they behave well, both in and out of lessons. Pupils feel safe and cared for. They trust adults to listen to them and help them if they have any concerns. Bullying is not something pupils worry about. If it were to happen, they are confident that adults would deal with it quickly. Leaders ensure that all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), benefit from a wide range of opportunities and experiences that bring the curriculum to life. Pupils enjoy the range of enrichment days, trips and visits on offer to them. They celebrate local Cornish culture as well as learning about the wider world and life in modern Britain. Pupils value the opportunities that they have to help younger pupils to read or to become subject ambassadors. They say these roles help them to learn new things, grow in confidence and develop resilience.
What the school should improve
- The implementation of the curriculum does not yet meet the needs of all pupils. Some teachers do not routinely plan activities which deepen pupils' understanding. This hampers the progress that some pupils make. Leaders should ensure that teachers plan activities that deepen pupils' knowledge and understanding across all subjects.
