What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 22 February 2022
Springfield Primary is a school where every pupil is welcome and cared for. It is a happy school where leaders and staff work hard to make sure that all pupils feel safe and are ready to learn. Pupils know who they can talk to if they have a concern or problem. Pupils know that adults have high expectations of them and understand the school wants them to 'Aim high and achieve excellence, together'. They told the inspector that they know the teachers are here to help them and that they encourage them to keep wanting to know more. Pupils are attentive in lessons, including the very youngest. They rise to teachers' expectations and enjoy being challenged. The school is a calm place. This is because pupils are well behaved. Those pupils who do struggle with their behaviour are well supported. Pupils say bullying is rare. If they see a problem, the school has taught them to be 'up standers, not bystanders' and tell someone. Pupils have many opportunities to take on roles of responsibility, which they take seriously. Year 6 sports leaders enjoy leading GUGA (Get Up Get Active) for the benefit of other pupils.
What the school should improve
- Some staff have recently taken up their posts and have not been fully trained to deliver the school phonics scheme. They do not always follow the agreed approaches when teaching phonics, which can be confusing for the pupils. Leaders should ensure that all staff know how the school expects them to teach phonics and follow this approach.
