Noor Ul Islam Primary School

Overview: Noor Ul Islam Primary School is a small, nurturing school with a strong sense of community. Pupils learn to be kind-hearted and thoughtful citizens, and achieve well by the time they leave in Year 6. The school encourages a love of reading and offers an exceptional range of extra-curricular clubs and opportunities.

Strengths:

• The school helps pupils learn to be kind-hearted and thoughtful citizens.
• Pupils achieve well and are ready for secondary school by the time they leave in Year 6.
• The school encourages a love of reading.
• Teachers demonstrate secure knowledge of the subjects they teach.
• The school offers an exceptional range of extra-curricular clubs and opportunities.

Areas to improve:

• Teachers do not check that pupils understand new learning routinely and use new subject-specific vocabulary accurately, which means that pupils sometimes do not secure new knowledge and subject-specific terminology in their long-term memory.
• At times, teachers do not ensure that they adapt learning to meet the individual needs of pupils with SEND, and the information teachers receive about pupils with SEND does not routinely include the best strategies to help them learn.

Safeguarding: The arrangements for safeguarding are effective.
