Nether Edge Primary School

What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 4 March 2025

Pupils are happy and thrive at this school. The curriculum is very well designed and delivered. The school has high ambitions for pupils' education. These high ambitions are realised and pupils achieve well. Those pupils who enter the school with low starting points achieve exceptionally well. Pupils are empowered through the school's strong personal development offer. This is carefully considered to reflect pupils' experiences and aspirations. The approach ensures that pupils are well equipped for life beyond the school. Pupils get the chance to make a real difference in the school. This includes pupil leadership roles. For example, peer mediators successfully help other pupils to work out any disharmony that might arise between friends. Pupils' understanding of fundamental British values is thorough. This deep understanding is embodied in pupils' choices and interactions. Pupils are knowledgeable about different faiths and cultures. They accept and value difference. Pupils contribute positively to the community. This includes litter picking, working with refugee charities and delivering art and music activities for elderly residents of the local care home. Expectations of pupils' positive behaviour are well embedded and understood by pupils. As a result, pupils' conduct is exemplary. Pupils treat each other and adults with kindness and respect.
