What This School Does Well
Westbury House School excels at nurturing well-behaved, hardworking pupils who achieve strong results in English. The school offers a rich, well-planned curriculum with enrichment activities in music, drama, sport and art that help pupils develop as whole individuals. Pupils consistently gain places at their secondary schools of choice.
Key Strengths
- Excellent pupil behaviour and work ethic - pupils consistently meet high expectations and feel safe at school
- Strong English teaching and achievement - pupils make good progress in writing and reading
- Well-planned curriculum that provides interesting learning experiences and supports spiritual, moral, social and cultural development
- Good early years provision where children achieve at least expected levels and many exceed this
- Pupils successfully gain places at secondary schools of their choice
Areas for Improvement
- Mathematics teaching needs improvement - progress is too slow and the most able pupils are not sufficiently challenged
- Leadership monitoring systems are not well developed - leaders cannot accurately track individual pupil progress or compare results to national standards
- Poor quality resources - reading books for older pupils are out of date and resources in the nursery need replacing
- Assessment systems do not provide the right information to help leaders understand how well pupils are progressing
- Teachers lack subject-specific training and opportunities to observe good practice, particularly in mathematics
Safeguarding
Safeguarding procedures are in place and pupils say they feel safe, though the report does not provide a formal effectiveness judgment on safeguarding.
Extracurricular Activities
Music, drama, sport, art, visits to Natural History Museum, visits to Science Museum, swimming lessons, physical education at Kings College sports ground
Westbury House School is an independent co-educational day school for ages 3-11 that requires improvement. While the school has strengths in English teaching and pupil behaviour, it needs to address slow progress in mathematics and inconsistent monitoring of pupil achievement.
