What Ofsted's report card says

Ofsted's report card from its 13 January 2026 inspection grades Dr Triplett's CofE Primary School on 7 areas: 3 strong standard and 4 expected standard. Report cards replaced single-word judgements in November 2025, on a five-point scale from exceptional to urgent improvement.

Achievement - Strong standard. "Across all year groups, pupils secure the essential knowledge they need in reading, writing and mathematics."

Personal development and wellbeing - Strong standard. "Leaders place high priority on pupils' personal development and wellbeing."

Attendance and behaviour - Expected standard. "Leaders take a systematic, proactive approach to attendance that prioritises vulnerable pupils and maintains high expectations."

Curriculum and teaching - Expected standard. "Leaders have constructed an ambitious curriculum with a clear focus on early reading, writing and mathematics."

Early years - Expected standard. "Children in the early years benefit from a calm, purposeful and well-established provision that gives them a secure start to their education."

Inclusion - Expected standard. "Leaders have a clear and shared commitment to ensuring that all pupils, particularly those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) and those facing barriers to learning or wellbeing, are fully included in school life and can access the same ambitious curriculum as their peers."

Safeguarding standards were met.

Ofsted's next steps for the school: "• Leaders should continue to strengthen support for pupils to reduce barriers, improve outcomes and support the wellbeing of pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities. • Leaders should embed clear and consistent expectations for handwriting so that pupils develop secure, fluent writing skills, presentation improves and pupils are better prepared to meet age-related expectations and sustain progress as they move through the school. • Leaders must continue to place high priority on improving attendance and punctuality, and further strengthen it, working closely with parents to ensure that attendance is high for all pupils. • Leaders should strengthen the consistency of high-quality adult interactions in the early years to help children develop strong speech and language skills".

Ofsted's report card, in its own words

What it's like to be a pupil at Dr Triplett's CofE Primary School

Pupils experience a school where they are safe, included and known well. From the start of the day, calm routines, warm greetings and clear expectations help pupils feel secure and ready to learn. Relationships between adults and pupils are consistently respectful. Pupils are polite, kind to one another and understand how to behave well. This creates a settled environment in which pupils feel safe and bullying is rare. When concerns do arise, pupils are confident that adults will listen and act quickly. Pupils enjoy coming to school and feel a strong sense of belonging. This is particularly evident for pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities and those who need extra help to manage learning or emotions. Reasonable adjustments are made so pupils can take part fully in school life. Pupils learn to understand and respect each other's differences. Parents, staff and pupils speak positively about the school as a caring and inclusive community. Learning is purposeful and well organised. Pupils are keen to talk about their work and take pride in their books. Teachers build learning carefully from pupils' starting points, helping them to develop secure foundations, particularly in early reading, writing, handwriting and mathematics. Younger children quickly learn routines and behaviours for learning that prepare them well for the future. Where pupils fall behind, targeted support helps them to catch up and re-engage with learning. Pupils behave well in lessons and around school. They move calmly between activities and concentrate well. Attendance is supported through positive relationships with families and encouragement that pupils value. Pupils are also helped to understand how to be responsible, respectful members of the school and wider community.

What Ofsted says the school should do next

  • • Leaders should continue to strengthen support for pupils to reduce barriers, improve outcomes and support the wellbeing of pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities. • Leaders should embed clear and consistent expectations for handwriting so that pupils develop secure, fluent writing skills, presentation improves and pupils are better prepared to meet age-related expectations and sustain progress as they move through the school. • Leaders must continue to place high priority on improving attendance and punctuality, and further strengthen it, working closely with parents to ensure that attendance is high for all pupils. • Leaders should strengthen the consistency of high-quality adult interactions in the early years to help children develop strong speech and language skills.
