Ofsted

We believe that our work can make the lives of children now and in future generations better by ensuring that pupil well-being and good pupil progress are at the heart of everything we do. We do this by creating safe, happy learning environments, which celebrate and promote the production of beautiful work. 

Pupils are proud to attend this inclusive and positive school. They value the supportive and nurturing relationships they have with staff.

All staff place importance on pupils’ well-being as much as their academic success. As a result, pupils are well prepared for the next stage of their education by the time they leave Year 6.

Westlands Primary School, Ofsted report June 2019

We ensure that all Trust provision is judged at least Good by Ofsted within two years of taking on a school. We relentlessly focus upon developing good pupil behaviour, good attainment standards, imaginative and creative teaching and emotionally intelligent and resilient leadership.

The executive headteacher and the head of school are ambitious for the school. They have worked effectively with the staff and the Trust to ensure that teaching, learning, assessment and behaviour have improved across the school.

Teachers plan interesting, creative learning opportunities that engage and interest pupils. As a result, most pupils focus on their learning with concentration, persevering when faced with a challenge and working hard to make improvements to their work.

We believe that by working together and harnessing the power of our collective family of schools we can hasten school improvement and provide opportunities for professional development that would not exist in a standalone school.

Trust support for school leaders via the primary director of education and the executive headteacher has been clearly focused and effective in securing rapid school improvement.
