What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 25 March 2025
There is a strong culture of safety and well-being at Redhill Primary School. Most pupils attend school regularly. The school does all it can to support pupils to overcome any barriers or challenges that they may face. Each day, pupils try hard to live by the school's 'ANTLERS' values. There is a strong ambition for pupils to be the best they can be. Pupils achieve well, particularly in reading and mathematics. Pupils are happy and safe. The school sets high expectations for pupils' behaviour. Pupils know and follow the school's 'ready, respectful, safe' rules. Classrooms are calm and orderly. Staff ensure that pupils follow clear routines. Pupils settle quickly to learning in lessons. They enjoy spending time with friends at social times. Appropriate support is provided to any pupil who needs it; be this help to regulate their behaviour or to settle and learn. Pupils are well-behaved in school. Rightly, parents, carers and pupils are appreciative of and proud of their school. Parents value the 'above and beyond' support they and their children receive. This makes a difference to so many pupils and families at the school. Pupils are well supported to be successful both in school and in life.
What the school should improve
- On occasion, simple errors in pupils' writing impact on writing fluency and presentation for some pupils. These pupils do not review and edit their work in line with age- appropriate expectations. The school should ensure that staff motivate pupils to think about writing readiness, so pupils write with the confidence and accuracy expected for their age.
- In a minority of foundation subjects, checks of pupils' understanding are not as precise as the school intends. This means that teachers cannot always be sure that curriculum endpoints are fully met in these subjects. The school should assure itself of the impact of the curriculum in these subjects on pupils' knowledge, so that it can be confident that endpoints are fully met and that pupils achieve well.
