What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 6 December 2023
Inclusion is at the heart of Trinity Primary School. Staff make sure that all pupils receive the help and care they need to achieve well and to grow into well-rounded young people. Pupils enjoy coming to school. They look forward to lessons and work hard. Pupils enjoy many opportunities to broaden their learning. They go on regular trips and visit places such as castles, science parks, museums and zoos to bring their curriculum to life. Children in early years enjoy exploring the world around them. Older pupils take their responsibilities as peer mediators, house captains and student councillors very seriously. They take pride in supporting younger pupils and in helping to improve school life. In turn, younger pupils know that older pupils will help them when they need it. The school makes sure that pupils are prepared well for their next steps. Pupils learn about how to keep safe and about the challenges they may face in the community. They are taught how to be responsible for their actions and how to contribute to school life. Pupils and their families enjoy the annual careers fair, which is supported by local colleges and employers.
What the school should improve
- Some pupils do not learn new sounds thoroughly enough before moving on to learn the next sounds. This is stopping them learning to read fluently as quickly as they could. The school should make sure that they use assessment more effectively to precisely identify the sounds that pupils know so that they can make sure that the phonics curriculum is adapted suitably well for all pupils.
- A small minority of staff do not feel confident that they can meet leaders' high expectations, particularly in how to implement the school's approach to managing behaviour. This means that sometimes pupils do not benefit from the consistent approaches that leaders intend. Leaders should continue to provide sufficient opportunities for training so that all staff are able to meet leaders' expectations confidently.
