What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 8 November 2022

Pupils and staff work together well at Wombridge Primary School. Leaders foster a warm and caring ethos, where all pupils are valued, respected and included. Most pupils enjoy school and are very happy to attend. They feel safe in school. The school's motto, 'LEAD', promotes learning, enjoyment, aspiration and determination for everyone. Pupils reflect these aims in the way they speak and act. They are eager to learn and to take part in lessons. They enjoy a broad range of subjects and are proud of their work. Pupils' positive behaviour makes the school a friendly and welcoming place. They are polite and well-mannered to each other and to adults. They learn about the school's 'BUDDY' rules and aim to make school enjoyable for everyone. On the rare occasion that bullying happens, pupils are confident that adults will sort it out quickly. Pupils enjoy a range of responsibilities in school. Some pupils are 'safeguarding ambassadors'. They complete daily tasks to promote key messages about safety. Others are elected to be 'class ambassadors'. Pupils gain a sense of independence by taking part in these opportunities. They gain confidence by making their own decisions about life in school.

What the school should improve

  • Pupils do not yet fully know and remember the key information that leaders expect in some subjects. This limits them in reaching their potential. Leaders should continue their work to improve the quality of the curriculum so that pupils know and remember the important information they need.
  • Leaders' work to check the impact of the curriculum in some subjects is not yet fully developed. This makes it difficult for them to identify what is working well and what is working less well. Leaders should further develop their approach to checking the impact of the curriculum.
