What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 23 April 2024
The School of Christ The King Catholic Primary is a welcoming and inclusive school. Pupils feel safe. Relationships are strong between adults and pupils. The school's values of 'friendship, kindness, forgiveness and love' are evident in pupils' conduct and how they treat one another. The school has an important role to play in the heart of the community. Pupils enjoy coming to school. The school's vision runs through the curriculum and aims for pupils to 'be the best they can be'. Pupils have opportunities to learn through experience and develop their independence. This helps to prepare them well for the next stage of their education. Pupils are polite and respectful. They understand the school's rules and follow them well. They listen carefully and are eager to learn. There is a calm and purposeful environment in classrooms and around the school. Children in early years settle well. They learn the daily routines quickly and follow instructions. Pupils benefit from a wide range of trips and external visitors which enrich the curriculum. They contribute to their local community. For example, pupils produced designs for the new community library and shared these with local architects. Pupils recognise the impact their work can have on others beyond their school.
What the school should improve
- Assessment is not used with enough precision to check what pupils know and remember. Pupils are not consistently able to recall their prior learning. As a result, learning is not adapted as necessary to build pupils' knowledge. The school needs to further develop its approach to assessment across the curriculum. This will help teachers to adapt learning when necessary so that pupils deepen their understanding.
