What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 27 September 2023
Thrybergh Primary School is a welcoming place. Leaders have high expectations of pupils' learning and behaviour. Pupils learn about the world around them through a range of trips and visitors, such as meeting a zoologist and a published author. This gives learning a context and a link to careers. Pupils are inspired by these experiences. It gives their learning a clear purpose. Pupils get the opportunity to learn how to play musical instruments. Some pupils are proud to represent the school in competitions. For example, some pupils worked with Rotherham Harriers running club and competed in a local cross-country championship. Pupils enjoy these opportunities. Pupils are happy and safe in school. If they have any worries, they can speak to adults, who will help them. Pupils say that bullying can happen. However, if it does, adults quickly sort out any issues. Pupils learn about some of the risks that they may encounter. This includes online and offline. Pupils learn how to use the internet safely. Many pupils also learn about water safety and have attended rescue workshops with Rotherham Fire and Rescue.
What the school should improve
- Some activities in the outdoor learning environment in early years are not tightly focused on what children need to learn next. As a result, some children do not learn as much as they could. The school should ensure that learning activities outside support children to learn the intended curriculum in preparation for key stage 1.
- Some pupils struggle to recall what they have been taught about different religions. As a result, some pupils are not as prepared for life in modern Britain as they could be. The school should ensure that teachers check that pupils have learned and remembered what they have been taught about different religions.
