Quick insights from ofsted Powered by AI
This insight was generated by AI, based on latest Ofsted report.
Foundational Skills: The teaching of phonics (the sounds that letters make) in Key Stage 1 is a significant strength.
Success of the Curriculum: Pupils' spiritual, moral, social and cultural understanding is developed very well through the rich and balanced curriculum.
Areas Needing Improvement: Provide frequent opportunities for pupils in all classes to develop their mathematical reasoning skills.
Performance in Maths & Reading: All groups of pupils make very strong progress in reading, writing and mathematics to reach standards that are above average by the time they leave Key Stage 2.
Support for Falling Behind: Senior leaders ensure that pupil premium funding is used effectively. As a result, disadvantaged pupils excel.
Behaviour and Attitudes: Pupils' exemplary behaviour contributes substantially to the rapid progress that they make in lessons.
Support for SEND Pupils: Pupils with special educational needs make progress that is at least in line with that of other pupils in the school.
Managing Bullying and Pupil Safety: Thorough checks to ensure that adults are cleared to work with pupils are up to date.
Promotion of Welfare and Safety: An ethos of respect and tolerance permeates the whole school community.
Parent Feedback: Every parent who responded to the school’s recent parental questionnaire agreed that pupils are safe at Corpus Christi.
Parental Involvement: Attempts to increase parental involvement have met with mixed success this year.
Extracurricular Activities: The school offers a wide range of extra-curricular sporting clubs such as martial arts, cross-country running and cheerleading.
Outdoor Facilities: School council members have recently worked with builders to design an outdoor performance area.
Teacher Engagement: Teachers are relentless in their pursuit of ensuring that every pupil reaches their full potential.
Impact on Student Progress: Teaching across the school is never less than consistently good, with much that is outstanding.
Teaching Staff Challenges: A high proportion of middle leaders are new to their roles but have quickly and accurately taken stock of the strengths and weaknesses.
Assessment of Teaching Quality: Teachers frequently check pupils’ work to make sure that learning is secure. Feedback is immediate and incisive.
