What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 7 February 2024
In the words of one of the pupils, Pinvin CofE First School is a 'caring community where we look after each other'. The church values of respect, community, peace, wisdom, joy and hope, shine through in all aspects of school life. Pupils understand why these values are important and reflect them when they work and play together. Pupils are proud to attend their school. They say that they are happy and feel safe. They know that staff care about them and say that they can always talk to a trusted adult if they are worried about anything. Pupils behave well during lessons and at playtimes. They have positive attitudes towards learning. They treat each other and adults with respect. Everyone has worked hard since the last inspection to move the school forward. Leaders have a clear vision with high expectations for all. Staff want the best for every pupil and have supported these changes. Staff are proud to work at the school. Pupils benefit from a range of opportunities that broaden their experiences. They enjoy a range of clubs, including mindfulness yoga. The pupil parliament also allows pupils to have a say about what happens in school. Pupils appreciate this.
What the school should improve
- In some subjects, the work given to pupils does not always support them to remember the essential learning. As a result, some pupils do not learn as well as they could. Leaders should ensure that the activities chosen for pupils support them to remember more across the curriculum.
- Some pupils' work lacks pride and contains basic grammar, punctuation and spelling errors. Teachers do not consistently address this. As a result, these pupils repeat the same mistakes or are not being helped to present work to a high standard. Leaders should make sure that teachers consistently have high expectations for presentation and that teachers address pupils' errors promptly.
- Too many pupils are regularly absent from school. This means that they do not learn as much as they should. Leaders should continue to work closely with families to ensure that they understand the importance of regular attendance.
