Ofsted Insights

What This School Does Well

St George's is a happy, safe place where pupils behave well and achieve strongly. Teachers make lessons interesting and ensure pupils master new vocabulary and concepts. The school is particularly strong in early years, and older pupils develop into fluent, confident readers who understand what they've learned across different subjects.

Key Strengths

  • Clear curriculum plans with logical progression so pupils build on what they already know
  • Strong teaching of new vocabulary and subject knowledge across mathematics, science and geography
  • Excellent early years provision with well-planned activities and strong focus on speaking and listening
  • Good behaviour and positive relationships between pupils and staff
  • Strong safeguarding arrangements and effective systems to keep pupils safe

Areas for Improvement

  • Some younger, less able readers are given books that don't match the sounds they have learned, causing them to struggle and guess
  • Subject leaders (outside English, maths and science) need clearer oversight of how the curriculum is being taught across the school
  • A few parents of pupils with SEND would like clearer and more timely guidance to support their children at home

Safeguarding

Safeguarding arrangements are effective with up-to-date staff training, careful systems to check the school is safe, and pupils taught well about keeping themselves safe including online safety.

Extracurricular Activities

School council, ecowarriors, daily mile, breakfast club, after school club

St George's Catholic Primary School is a larger than average primary school where pupils are happy, feel safe, and behave well. Overall effectiveness has been rated as Good, maintaining strong leadership and provision across the school.
