What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 8 April 2025
Pupils flourish at St. Osburg's Catholic Primary School. As a result of the school's distinctive nurturing ethos, pupils model values such as 'humility' and 'compassion'. When describing life at this school, pupils speak with unreserved praise for its kind and welcoming atmosphere. For example, one pupil commented, 'This is a community of love, education, manners and good will.' Pupils' conduct around school is exemplary. They rise to meet the school's high expectations for their behaviour and learning. In the early years, children settle quickly into school routines and develop strong relationships with one another. Pupils are highly respectful of staff and each other. Pupils are enthusiastic to learn and work hard. Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) receive additional support to help them to access their learning with confidence. The majority of pupils build up a secure knowledge across many areas of the curriculum. As a result, most are well prepared for the next stage of education and achieve well. Pupils have access to an exceptional range of rich and meaningful personal development opportunities. Through the school's 'St Osburg's Promise', these include cultural activities, trips, sporting events and many clubs. Pupils enjoy these and take part enthusiastically.
What the school should improve
- On occasion, the school has not ensured that pupils' misconceptions are addressed consistently and in a timely way. This means that some pupils repeat errors, miss important learning and have gaps in their knowledge. The school should ensure that all staff have the knowledge and skills they need to address misconceptions and gaps in pupils' learning in a timely and effective way.
