What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 19 November 2024

Tylers Green First School has a lovely, warm, welcoming feel. There is a strong sense of community, both within the school and beyond. The school's vision of 'children at the heart of the school, the school at the heart of the village' is central to life at Tylers Green. Pupils are happy and value the high level of support and care they receive from their teachers. Pupils describe the school as 'safe, fun and brilliant'. The school has extremely high expectations for behaviour. Pupils understand the importance of good manners and being kind to each other. Relationships between staff and pupils are supportive and trusting. As one pupil said, 'They really care about you here.' Bullying is not something that pupils worry about. Pupils are well prepared for the next stage of their education and, overall, achieve well. Pupils spoke about the wide range of opportunities that are available. They enjoy clubs such as drama, kickboxing and tennis. Pupils enjoy the educational visits staff plan, including the trip to a wildlife park and attending the village Remembrance Day event. These experiences help to deepen their learning.

What the school should improve

  • The school's curriculum thinking is not as well developed in a few subjects. This makes it difficult for teachers to address any gaps in learning as swiftly as they could. Pupils are not able to recall what they have learned and make links to new learning. The school must continue the work on the curriculum and ensure that it is as effective in all subjects as it is in the strongest.
