What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 15 November 2022

The Revel CofE (Aided) Primary School has a strong Christian ethos that permeates all elements of school life. Pupils reflect this ethos in the way that they care for others. They are eager to welcome visitors and new pupils to the school. They are polite and respectful to adults. They are proud members of the school community. Most pupils behave very well. They understand the school rules and stick to them. Bullying is rare and pupils trust adults to sort out issues when they happen. Older pupils look after younger ones. For example, pupils in Year 5 act as 'buddies' to children in Reception Year. This gives pupils a sense of belonging, helping them feel safe. Staff make the most of the school's expansive and idyllic grounds. Pupils take part in regular outdoor learning activities linked to the school's curriculum. Some of these sessions enhance pupils' appreciation of the local countryside. Pupils enjoy and value this aspect of their education. Pupils enjoy a range of opportunities that build their independence and confidence. Some represent their classes as 'pupil leaders'. They are elected to these roles by their peers. This helps to deepen their understanding of the democratic process.

What the school should improve

  • Some teachers are still developing their expertise in teaching the curriculum. They do not always set tasks that help pupils to practise using the key information they have learned. Leaders should continue to develop staff's expertise, so that they know how to teach all subjects well.
  • A small minority of pupils lose focus in lessons on occasions. This sometimes distracts others from learning. Leaders should ensure that staff use consistent strategies to help all pupils focus on learning in lessons.
