The school was inspected in September 2008 by OFSTED.
Here are a few extracts from the summary:
'Standards are above the national average, particularly in English. The school is very committed to the care and support of all its pupils and this contributes to their good personal development and well-being. This is recognised by parents. One reflected several similar comments received by writing of the 'high level of care and attention given to all pupils by all staff', while others referred to the 'nurturing' of individuals that 'allows them to grow in confidence'. The school is improving the way it carries out checks on its work and is gaining a more accurate view of its performance.'
and
'The attainment of children on entry to the EYFS is above that expected for their age apart from writing which is barely in line with expectations. Children make good progress in their first year in school and by the end of the EYFS, standards are significantly above the national average.'
