Ofsted Insights

What This School Does Well

Belmont Infant School creates a warm, inclusive community where children thrive. With outstanding behaviour and a caring ethos, pupils from diverse backgrounds work exceptionally well together. The school excels at supporting early language development and reading progress, particularly for children learning English as an additional language.

Key Strengths

  • Behaviour and safety are outstanding - pupils are well-behaved and feel extremely safe
  • Reading attainment is above average and phonics teaching is structured and systematic
  • Strong support for pupils learning English as an additional language through emphasis on speaking and listening
  • Excellent partnership with parents, including winning the 'Leading Parent Partnership' award
  • Well-trained staff effectively support pupils with special educational needs and disabilities

Areas for Improvement

  • Pupils need more opportunities to write at length in literacy lessons, which is slowing writing progress
  • Marking and feedback does not always give clear guidance on how pupils can improve
  • School leaders need to use assessment data better to track progress of different groups against national standards
  • Insufficient attention to helping pupils present their work neatly

Safeguarding

Safeguarding is effective - pupils say they feel extremely safe at school, trust adults to keep them safe, understand online safety, and the school takes bullying and racist incidents seriously.

Extracurricular Activities

Gardening Saturdays for pupils and parents, clubs, school visitors, design and technology activities

Belmont Infant School is a good school where pupils make steady progress from low starting points, with above-average reading attainment by the end of Key Stage 1. Teaching is securely good with some outstanding lessons, and behaviour throughout the school is exemplary.
