What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 11 March 2025
Pupils enjoy life at St Wilfrid's CofE Primary School. Always polite and respectful, they told inspectors they love their school and the range of experiences it offers. Caring staff make sure that pupils feel safe and resolve any worries quickly. Parents and carers who spoke to inspectors were also full of praise for the school. Parents value the way that staff and leaders communicate with them and involve them in their children's education. The school prepares pupils exceptionally well for their next stages in education and beyond. Character development is at the heart of everything the school provides. Guided by the school's values, pupils develop mature attitudes to spirituality, diversity and equality. They know how to keep themselves physically and mentally healthy, and how to maintain positive relationships. Children in the early years get off to the best possible start. Expert staff are attentive to their needs and interests. Staff take every chance to stretch children's curiosity as they eagerly engage with learning and play in the well-resourced learning environment. The school has high expectations of pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Pupils respond well. They have positive attitudes and achieve well. There are few disruptions to learning.
What the school should improve
- On some occasions, learning activities do not focus sharply enough on the important knowledge that is identified in the curriculum. When this happens, pupils do not gain knowledge as securely as they could. The school should ensure that staff have a strong shared understanding of the curriculum and the expertise to design learning activities that enable pupils to meet the ambitious aims of that curriculum.
- At times, teachers do not check pupils' understanding as precisely as they could. This means that, occasionally, misconceptions or gaps in pupils' knowledge are not addressed as swiftly as they could be. The school should ensure that checks on pupils' understanding are used systematically to support learning.
