Ofsted Insights

What This School Does Well

St Mary's is a caring, welcoming school where children feel safe and behave exceptionally well. Reading teaching is consistently strong across the school, and pupils who speak English as an additional language receive excellent support. The school creates a positive environment where children are keen to learn and enjoy coming to lessons.

Key Strengths

  • New headteacher has identified the right priorities to rapidly improve progress
  • Pupils currently in the school are making good progress in reading
  • Pupils are safe, secure, and behave well with strong attitudes to learning
  • Spiritual, moral, social and cultural development is well developed
  • Pupils learning English as an additional language are effectively supported to catch up

Areas for Improvement

  • Teaching is not good enough to ensure all pupils make consistent progress across writing and mathematics
  • Pupils do not always get time to correct and improve their work after marking
  • Disadvantaged pupils eligible for free school meals are significantly behind their peers
  • Many pupils do not reach the higher levels in reading, writing and mathematics
  • School does not rigorously monitor how well additional funding is helping disadvantaged pupils

Safeguarding

Safeguarding was found to be effective with pupils reporting they are safe and secure at school.

Extracurricular Activities

Breakfast club, after-school provision, after-school homework club, debating sessions

St Mary's Bryanston Square CofE Primary School is a primary school in London that requires improvement. While pupils behave well and feel safe, not all pupils make consistently good progress, particularly in writing and mathematics, and significant gaps remain for disadvantaged pupils.
