Ofsted Insights
What This School Does Well
The school has created a positive behaviour culture where most pupils work purposefully in a calm atmosphere, and safeguarding arrangements are strong. Mathematics teaching is particularly effective, with pupils achieving above national averages in key areas. The school also provides excellent support for disadvantaged pupils through well-targeted additional help and ensures all children have equal access to clubs, trips and enrichment activities.
Key Strengths
- Mathematics teaching is a strength with pupils' multiplication knowledge consistently above national averages
- Safeguarding culture is open and positive with all legal requirements met
- Behaviour management has improved with clear expectations and positive reinforcement across the school
- Personal, social and health education curriculum is well-established and enriched with real-world discussions
- Pupils in receipt of pupil premium funding receive well-targeted support with equal access to school activities
Areas for Improvement
- Early years provision is not ambitious enough and children are not adequately prepared for Year 1
- Teachers' expectations of what pupils can achieve are not consistently high, particularly in reading and writing
- Pupils with communication, language and learning needs are not identified with enough precision or given appropriate support
- Teaching does not consistently match to pupils' individual needs or developmental stages
- Quality assurance processes need to be sharpened to ensure consistency across all areas of the school
Safeguarding
Safeguarding standards are met with leaders fulfilling their responsibilities and establishing an open culture where safeguarding is everyone's responsibility and pupils are made safer and feel safe.
Extracurricular Activities
football, rugby, gardening, dance, yoga, mindfulness
Keldmarsh Primary School requires significant improvement overall, though safeguarding standards are met and mathematics is a strength. The school faces challenges in early years provision, reading and writing achievement, and ensuring consistent teaching quality across the curriculum.
