What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 12 November 2024

Adults at Wragby Primary School are supportive and caring. Pupils like their lessons because they know that adults will help them to do their best. There is an inclusive environment where pupils respect and value each other. This is demonstrated in the way older pupils enjoy helping younger pupils at playtime. Pupils understand the school's expectations. Pupils are happy. They like it when they receive house points and stickers for demonstrating the school values. Staff are ambitious and have high expectations for all pupils. They have thought carefully about how to inspire and motivate pupils to be curious in their learning and to think deeply about a range of topics. As a result, pupils achieve well. A range of experiences are planned to help bring the curriculum to life, such as a trip to the local air museum to see a real Lancaster bomber. Children in the early years enjoy exploring the stimulating environment, which helps them to learn in a variety of ways. Pupils are proud to attend Wragby Primary School and like to represent the school in a range of community events. They enjoy learning about schools around the world through writing to their pen pals in France.

What the school should improve

  • In some subjects, the curriculum is new. In these subjects, the way teachers check pupils' learning is not fully developed. Consequently, teachers do not always identify gaps in pupils' understanding. Sometimes, they move pupils on to new learning before they are ready. The school should support teachers to use assessment effectively in all subjects, so that gaps are identified and addressed. This will help pupils to build their knowledge securely over time.
  • In subjects where the curriculum is new, the school's checks on the effectiveness of the curriculum are not yet fully established. As a result, the school does not have a strong overview of what is working well and what needs to change in these subjects. The school should ensure that the necessary checks on the quality of the curriculum are fully in place, so that pupils have opportunities to learn equally well in all subjects.
