Holy Rosary Catholic Primary School

Overview: Holy Rosary Catholic Primary School provides a positive and supportive learning environment where pupils achieve well and develop a love of learning. The school has high expectations of pupils' behaviour and provides opportunities for pupils to contribute to the school community.

Strengths:

• The school is ambitious for pupils to achieve well, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).
• Staff in the early years help children get off to a positive start with their education.
• Pupils work hard in lessons and take pride in what they do.
• The school has high expectations of pupils' behaviour, with pupils behaving well and treating one another with respect and consideration.
• Pupils experience many opportunities that prepare them well for life in modern Britain, including educational visits and extra-curricular clubs.

Areas to improve:

• In a very small number of subjects, some of the learning activities that pupils experience do not build up their understanding of the key knowledge set out in the curriculum, resulting in some pupils' knowledge being insecure and they do not learn as well as they could.

Safeguarding: The arrangements for safeguarding are effective.
