What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 24 September 2024

Trinity Church of England Primary School is a warm and friendly school that knows it's pupils well. The school's vision of 'Courage, Friendship and Respect, underpinned by Love and Kindness' comes through in all aspects of school life. Pupils are happy and safe. They say that bullying is very rare. Pupils are confident that staff will always help them to sort things out. Pupils recognise and value the help they get and the opportunities to learn beyond the classroom. They talk with enthusiasm about the extra opportunities they have such as the 'Lego' and football clubs. One pupil summed up the views of many when they said, 'You get treated really well here.' Pupils do well at Trinity. They love books and are well supported to learn how to read. Recent improvements in the way that subjects are planned is making it easier for pupils to learn and remember important information. Leaders want all pupils to succeed and achieve well. Staff work hard to give every pupil a good education, including those in the early years and those with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). Parents are extremely positive about the school. Many parents told inspectors how much they value the care and support their children receive at Trinity. This was particularly the case for parents whose children have SEND. The school is a kind and welcoming place, where pupils develop a knowledge and respect for those who are different from themselves.

What the school should improve

  • The school does not deliver all areas of the curriculum as intended. This means some pupils' learning is not as successful as it should be. The school should ensure that all teachers have the subject knowledge they need in order to teach and assess the curriculum effectively.
  • Leaders and governors do not have a sufficiently accurate overview of the quality of education on offer in the school. As a result, they are not able to identify the strategic priorities that will have the greatest impact on the quality of education. Leaders and governors should strengthen their strategic school improvement to ensure outcomes for pupils continue to improve.
