The findings of this inspection are that an average portion of the pupils are likely to achieve the expected level in English and science in the 2001 tests, but that a smaller proportion than nationally, will achieve the expected level in mathematics. Standards in art and design and physical education are above the national expectation. Pupils use of literacy in all subjects is satisfactory but that of numeracy is unsatisfactory. Children in the Foundation Stage make good progress and are on target to attain all the Early Learning Goals by the time they enter Year 1. Pupils with special educational needs make satisfactory progress overall as do those who use English as an additional language.
Pupils are very keen to learn and concentrate well in lessons.
The quality of pupils behaviour, including that of children in the Foundation Stage, is very good. They consider the needs of others and respond well to the school s behaviour management strategies. Personal development and relationships Very good. Pupils get on very well together and with adults. Pupils of all ages assume responsibilities for school routines and carry them out diligently.
