St Peter's Church of England Controlled Primary School and Nursery

What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 17 December 2024

Pupils at this warm and welcoming school embody the school's vision of 'Let your light shine.' Their behaviour and manners shine across all aspects of school life. Pupils are taught how to be role models through becoming buddies to the younger children. They flourish in this role. Pupils develop a strong sense of responsibility and pride. The school's ambitious curriculum gives pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), many rich opportunities to develop new knowledge. Learning is enhanced through high-quality trips and experiences that bring learning to life. For example, pupils visit a local Victorian museum in different year groups to build up their knowledge over time. Learning across all subjects is meticulously sequenced and this helps pupils to achieve consistently well. Pupils are very well prepared for the next stage of their education. The school develops pupils' talents and interests through a wide range of opportunities, such as school councillors, faith councillors and safety guardians. The school thinks carefully about how to develop these responsibilities even further. For example, the school council has a pupil treasurer who works with the parent and teacher association to budget for school improvements.
