Payhembury Church of England Primary School has been praised at their recent Ofsted inspection, with inspectors saying 'pupils sparkle'
They were graded a 'good school' in 2015, and Ofsted then carry out short inspections every four years to inspect the school.
The school has designed an ambitious curriculum which staff have an accurate knowledge of pupils so that they are able to identify and meet their needs.
Some things the school need to improve is some subjects in the wider curriculum are not as well embedded as subjects in the core curriculum. Where this is the case, pupils do not recall and build new learning as successfully as they do in other areas.
The school should work to fully embed all subjects in the wider curriculum, so that pupils learn as well as they do in core curriculum subjects.
Pupils’ behaviour and attitudes to learning are exceptional. Relationships are strong and nurturing. However, this does not dampen pupils’ independence and determination. This acts to further fuel pupils to meet the high expectations the school has of them.
