What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 25 February 2025
Pupils at Steeton Primary School receive the academic and pastoral support they need to thrive. They rise to the very high expectations the school has for them. Staff are ambitious for every pupil. Pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) achieve well. The school's vision to provide a warm, nurturing place to learn is realised. Relationships between staff and pupils are extremely positive and supportive. Pupils know that staff care for them. Staff ensure pupils' individual needs are known and met. Pupils know what is expected of them and they want to do their best. This starts in the early years where children share with their friends and follow instructions carefully. The school is calm and orderly. This makes a positive atmosphere for learning. Pupils enjoy their learning. They are exceptionally proud of their welcoming, inclusive school. Pupils who hold leadership roles make an important contribution. The 'Steeton Voice Panel' represent their peers well. They ensure pupil voice is heard. Pupils have helped to review lunchtimes and implemented their own ideas. Older pupils set a positive example for their younger peers. The 'buddy' system provides pupils with additional opportunities to demonstrate this. For example, Year 6 pupils accompany their early years 'buddies' to the local bookstore to choose a selection of new books for school.
What the school should improve
- At times, learning activities for the youngest children, do not provide them with the opportunities they need to apply what they know and can do to more complex tasks. This means that children's learning does not move on and develop as quickly and effectively as it could. The school should ensure that all staff have the knowledge that they need to provide learning opportunities which allow the youngest children to develop, practise and learn new knowledge through activities which meet their needs.
