Woolmore Primary School

What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 28 September 2022

'Togetherness' is a word that sums up Woolmore. Pupils, staff and families come together frequently to celebrate, learn and support each other. Pupils and staff are proud and happy members of this school. Staff have high expectations and are aspirational for every pupil. They want them to achieve highly, and pupils do. Across the curriculum, pupils build detailed knowledge and remember it in the long term. They thrive in all aspects of school life and relish their learning. Pupils and adults display high levels of respect towards each other. Clear and consistent expectations mean that pupils behave very well. The school values, such as care and respect, are the pillars of everyday school life. Pupils are shown, taught and reminded at every opportunity what these values are and what they mean. Pupils feel safe. They understand what bullying is and that such behaviour is not acceptable. Adults sort out any concerns quickly if they arise. Pupils take part in a rich variety of experiences alongside the subjects they learn. Opportunities have recently included visits to iconic landmarks in London as well as to the British basketball play-off finals at the O2. Debates about different perspectives are a regular feature of the curriculum. Pupils also learn about helping others, for example by raising money for charities.
