What This School Does Well

Easington offers a caring, inclusive environment where children thrive emotionally and academically. The school excels at providing diverse learning experiences - from unique sports to local historical projects - that help rural pupils understand the wider world. Teachers prioritise each child as an individual, with particularly strong reading support and pastoral care for families.

Key Strengths

  • Strong focus on reading with phonics teaching tailored to each child's needs -
  • Wide range of enrichment activities including unusual sports like fencing and curling to broaden pupils' horizons -
  • Excellent behaviour and positive atmosphere throughout the school -
  • Individualised approach ensuring all pupils, including those with SEND, feel supported and included -
  • Strong pastoral support system for pupils and families with clear systems to identify and address additional needs

Areas for Improvement

  • Learning is not adapted quickly enough in lessons for some pupils, particularly those with SEND, meaning their knowledge gaps are not always addressed -
  • Pupils' learning in some subjects becomes insecure over time when teaching doesn't build on what they already know -
  • Attendance remains a high priority despite strong engagement

Safeguarding

Safeguarding arrangements are effective with staff creating an open and positive culture that puts pupils' interests first.

Extracurricular Activities

Skateboarding, dance, yoga, sporting events and competitions, local historical projects
