Ofsted 2015

On the 15th & 16th January 2015 Ofsted came to visit and inspect our school. During the recent visit it was found that:

  • Leaders and Governors are highly ambitious for the school and its pupils. They have been effective in raising standards year on year and improving early years provision since the previous inspection.
  • Pupils achieve well. They make good progress from low starting points to reach average standards in reading, writing and mathematics at the end of Key Stage 2.
  • Disabled pupils and those with special educational needs do exceptionally well because leadership in this area is outstanding.
  • Provision for, and therefore achievement of more-able pupils has improved since the previous inspection.
  • The work the school does to keep pupils safe is outstanding.
  • Pupils show each other exceptionally high levels of respect and behave well around school, for example at playtimes and lunchtimes are calm and harmonious.
  • Staff work exceptionally well with parents. The parents inspectors spoke to were extremely positive about the school.
  • The school promotes pupils’ spiritual, moral, social and cultural development well. This ensures pupils leave Carlton as well-rounded youngsters who have every chance of success in the next phase of their education.
  • Early years provision is now good. Children make good progress because activities meet their needs well.
  • Attendance figures have risen year on year since the previous inspection.
