“Children in the Reception class make excellent progress, especially in their personal development and in their speaking, reading and writing. Good leadership from the headteacher, deputy headteacher and those in charge of subjects such as English and mathematics is making sure that standards are rising. The governing body is very supportive and knowledgeable about all aspects of the school’s work.”
