What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 21 November 2023
Pupils at Newby Primary School model the school values of being kind, confident and successful. They enjoy attending this caring school. Pupils trust adults to look after and support them. As a result, pupils are safe in the school and feel part of the school family. The school ensures that pupils understand how to behave well in lessons and at social times. For example, adults praise pupils for sensibly walking down the corridors. When pupils receive a house token reward for this, they are very proud. Pupils understand that respecting differences is important. They describe the differences between people with understanding and compassion. Pupils' understanding of the protected characteristics is carefully developed by the school. This helps pupils to be prepared well for life in modern Britain. The school enables pupils to take on leadership roles. Some older pupils are lunchtime ambassadors. They help younger children understand how to tidy up after lunch. Pupils are keen to take on these roles.
What the school should improve
- On occasions, teaching does not check how well pupils have learned important knowledge. This means that pupils move on to new learning before they are ready. The school needs to ensure that effective strategies for checking pupils' understanding are consistently implemented.
- Some pupils do not regularly attend assemblies that promote their wider development. This means they miss out on valuable opportunities to enhance their understanding of the world. The school should explore ways to ensure that all pupils access this important learning.
