What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 18 June 2024
Preshute Church of England Primary School is a friendly and inclusive school. Staff and pupils have very positive relationships. The school's vision is lived out through all aspects of school life, including the curriculum. Pupils, staff and the community work together to 'live life and love learning'. The school has high expectations for pupils' behaviour. Pupils are polite and well mannered. They understand the importance of tolerance and respect. There is a calm and purposeful environment in classrooms and around the school. Pupils listen carefully and are eager to learn. Pupils feel safe in school and learn how to stay safe online. They feel confident to share any worries with trusted adults in school. There is a culture of support and kindness to others, which all at the school model well. Pupils value the welcoming atmosphere with one stating, 'Our school is like a second family.' Pupils benefit from a wide range of trips and external visitors which enrich the curriculum. Pupils make contributions to their community. For example, artwork from the school's art enrichment week is displayed in a local gallery. They recognise the impact their work can have on others beyond their school.
What the school should improve
- The implementation of the intended curriculum is not yet consistent across all subjects and classes. As a result, pupils do not build on their prior knowledge and remember more over time. The school should continue to embed the curriculum so that pupils can deepen their understanding of what they study across the full breadth of the curriculum.
