Ofsted's report, in its own words

What is it like to attend this school?

Loxley C of E Community Primary School is like one big family. Pupils are polite and well mannered. They are kind to one another and know how to be a good friend. The school sets high expectations of pupils' behaviour. 'Guiding lights' remind pupils of the school's expectations. Any incidents of poor behaviour are managed swiftly and effectively. Restorative conversations help pupils to reflect on how their behaviour impacts others.

There is a strong culture of safeguarding, including keeping safe when online. Pupils are happy and safe, and they enjoy attending. Leaders do all they can to make sure pupils attend school regularly, and the majority of pupils do.

What does the school do well and what does it need to do better?

The school has adopted an ambitious and well-sequenced curriculum for all pupils. It sets out the knowledge and skills pupils need to be successful. Careful consideration is given to meeting the needs of mixed-age learners.

Teachers have the subject knowledge they need to teach the curriculum well. They successfully support pupils to recall prior knowledge so that they make connections to new learning and develop their vocabulary over time. Pupils are proud of their work. In addition, pupils get effective support to correct and improve it in lessons. However, teachers do not always check how well pupils are learning the curriculum over time in some subjects. This means that gaps in learning are not always identified and addressed in these subjects.
