What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 17 December 2024
Pupils at Trinity Anglican-Methodist Primary School are welcoming and friendly. They are proud of their school and are confident when speaking to visitors. Pupils meet the school's high expectations for both achievement and conduct. Pupils enjoy warm and supportive relationships with adults. The school knows its pupils well. As a result, pupils trust adults to listen and help them with any worries or concerns they may have. Pupils' behaviour is calm and purposeful. This starts in Nursery. Children respond well to the routines that are in place and show increasing levels of independence. Across the school, pupils are polite and well-mannered. They routinely follow the school rules and understand how this helps them to be respectful and ready to learn. Pupils take part in a variety of enrichment activities. They make visits to places of interest. These are carefully planned to support and build on areas of the curriculum. For example, pupils visit the SS Great Britain to deepen their knowledge of history. Pupils have many opportunities to develop their leadership skills such as 'rota kids' and the mini police. Pupils learn new skills and talents through a range of clubs. These include chess and art club.
What the school should improve
- In some subjects, the way the curriculum is taught does not always allow pupils who have secured their leaning to move onto more complex knowledge. Therefore, some pupils do not always make the progress they could, which limits their ability to fully deepen their understanding and apply more advanced concepts in these subjects. The school should ensure that teachers have the training and pedagogical expertise to remedy this.
