Areas for Improvement
- Early years provision - children do not make sufficiently strong progress and are not well prepared for Year 1
- Some learning activities lack sufficient challenge, particularly in science and humanities
- Teachers' expectations for most able pupils in writing are not consistently high enough
- Pupils do not always apply their writing skills well across different subjects
- Presentation of pupils' work could be neater
Safeguarding
Safeguarding is effective, with strong procedures in place, regular staff training, appropriate vetting of staff and volunteers, and regular workshops for parents on safety matters including online safety and protection issues.
Extracurricular Activities
Educational trips, after-school clubs, sporting competitions (tennis, football, dodgeball), daily running programme, school council, green ambassadors
Havelock Primary School and Nursery is a good school where the headteacher and leaders ensure pupils receive quality education and make strong progress in reading, writing and mathematics. However, the early years provision requires improvement as children do not make sufficiently strong progress from their starting points.
