What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 24 October 2023
Everyone is made to feel welcome at Tividale Community Primary School. Staff take time to build warm and nurturing relationships with pupils. The school sets high standards for what it wants pupils to achieve. This is underpinned by the 'Tividale Values' that play a key role in helping pupils to develop into well-rounded young people. Pupils behave extremely well. In lessons, they listen attentively to their teachers and are keen to participate in class discussions and share their ideas. During playtime, pupils enjoy playing different sports or chatting with friends and staff. Pupils feel safe and know where to go if they have any worries. Pupils study a range of subjects as part of their curriculum. In reading and mathematics, pupils make good progress and are confident in what they know and understand. Pupils enjoy their learning in other subjects and are keen to share this with visitors. The school provides many ways for pupils to extend their learning beyond the classroom. Pupils in Years 5 and 6 enjoy attending residential trips each year to Edgmond and Ingestre Hall. Pupils can also take up roles as part of the school council or become trained as a sports leader through a local football club.
What the school should improve
- In some foundation subjects, teachers' delivery of the curriculum is not as strong in some subjects as it is in others. This means that pupils can experience variability in how subjects are taught, resulting in their knowledge and understanding of topics not being as secure as they should be. The school should ensure that all subjects are taught well so that pupils are secure in what they know and understand across the curriculum.
- In some subjects, leaders are still helping teachers to develop strong subject and pedagogical knowledge. On occasion, teachers are not always confident in how they present new knowledge or deliver new topics. The school should provide further support to enhance teachers' subject knowledge and improve their teaching.
