What This School Does Well
Wyborne Primary School is led by a headteacher who genuinely puts children first and has quickly improved the quality of teaching. The school has successfully helped disadvantaged pupils catch up in reading and writing, and has dramatically reduced persistent absence through sensitive, robust work with families. Pupils are proud of their school and take on real responsibilities through roles like pupil governors and playground ambassadors.
Key Strengths
- Strong leadership that puts pupils' needs first and has quickly improved teaching quality in key stage 1
- Pupils take pride in their school and hold varied leadership roles such as pupil governors and playground ambassadors
- Effective partnership with 11 other schools has improved curriculum delivery and teacher assessment accuracy
- Significant improvements in reading and writing for disadvantaged pupils in key stage 1
- Persistent absence rates for disadvantaged pupils and those with SEND have been reduced by half
Areas for Improvement
- Progress of most able and most able disadvantaged pupils in reading remains inconsistent across year groups
- Most able pupils in mathematics jump between topics too quickly without practising skills deeply enough
- Very few pupils achieve greater depth standards in reading and mathematics
Safeguarding
Safeguarding is effective - all staff understand their role in keeping pupils safe, staff recruitment checks are thorough, pupils feel secure and confident speaking to adults about concerns, and safeguarding records are detailed and up to date.
Wyborne Primary School continues to be good following inspection in July 2017. The leadership team has maintained education quality since the last inspection in 2013, with the headteacher establishing effective improvements after joining in September 2015.
