What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 28 November 2023

The new headteacher identified that the quality of education that pupils received at Myton Park Primary School had declined since the previous inspection. The school has addressed this quickly and implemented a well-considered action plan. This has ensured that the school has improved rapidly since the new headteacher's appointment. Leaders have designed an ambitious curriculum, including for pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). In most areas of the school, this is taught well. However, the choice of activities to deliver the curriculum in the early years foundation stage is not always effective. Pupils are happy and safe. They are proud of their school. Pupils are kind to each other and bullying is not tolerated. Pupils attend well and come to school eager to learn. Lessons are rarely disrupted by poor behaviour. However, some of the youngest pupils do not behave as well as their older peers. Leaders foster pupils' aspirations well. They have high expectations for every pupil to be successful and follow their dreams. Older pupils value the opportunity to contribute to the life of the school through a range of different leadership roles, such as sports leaders, eco-club or being part of the smart crew to promote e-safety. Pupils talked enthusiastically about the different clubs that they can be part of, such as the gardening club and playing sports.

What the school should improve

  • Some activities and resources given to children in the early years do not reinforce the new knowledge that children have been taught. As a result, opportunities for children to practise and embed new knowledge and skills are missed. The school should ensure that the activities and resources that children access independently give them the opportunity to practise and embed what they have been taught.
  • The curriculum does not always provide opportunities for pupils to deepen their understanding and make connections within and across different subjects. The school should ensure that it implements its existing plans for the curriculum to allow pupils to move beyond factual recall to develop a deep body of knowledge across the curriculum.
