5.0/10 Broadly average

35th of 84 primary schools in Sandwell we can score, 93 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.

Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 5.8/10 against 2,483 of them, against 4.9/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

What Ofsted said about All Saints CofE Primary School

Inspection report dated 1 July 2024

Overview

All Saints CofE Primary School is described as a “welcoming and inspiring school” that is “at the heart of its community.” The report highlights a “calm, caring environment” where pupils behave well, feel safe, and are “keen to learn.” Overall effectiveness is judged as Good, with Outstanding ratings for behaviour, personal development, and early years provision.

Strengths

  • The curriculum is “forward-thinking and structured,” with learning that is “sequenced and builds progressively” to ensure pupils remember essential knowledge.
  • Early years provision is of “very high quality,” featuring an “exemplary” outdoor environment and “high-quality interactions” between staff and children.
  • Staff “skilfully identify pupils’ needs” and provide effective support, ensuring pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) “can achieve well in all subjects.”
  • The school “inspires a love of reading,” with staff trained to a “high standard” in phonics and daily reading sessions helping pupils become “fluent and confident readers.”
  • Pupils exhibit “high levels of maturity and self-control,” are “kind and friendly,” and take on various positions of responsibility to develop their personal growth.

Areas to improve

  • In some subject areas, “checking of pupils’ understanding is not thorough enough,” meaning “misconceptions are missed” and pupils are not always as secure in their learning as they should be.
  • The school needs to “develop further the consistent use of assessment systems across the curriculum” to address these gaps.

Safeguarding

The report states that “the arrangements for safeguarding are effective.”
