Ofsted: Good · 2023 Inspected 3 years ago Mixed Primary
6.5/10 Above average

61st of 203 primary schools in Surrey we can score, 296 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 the 4,133 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 6.5/10 among them, against 7.2/10 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 Oakfield Junior School

Inspection report dated 13 July 2023

Overview

Oakfield Junior School is rated ‘Good’ for overall effectiveness, with ‘Outstanding’ personal development. Pupils are described as happy, kind, and respectful, demonstrating a strong sense of community and safety. Leaders maintain high expectations for all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), ensuring inclusive participation in school life.

Strengths

  • Pupils show ‘kindness and respect’ and feel ‘safe and well looked after’, with ‘extremely positive’ relationships between staff and pupils.
  • Personal development is ‘highly effective’, with pupils talking confidently about respectful relationships and celebrating difference.
  • Leaders have a ‘clear approach to reading’, fostering a ‘strong culture of reading’ where pupils share books enthusiastically.
  • In mathematics, pupils ‘demonstrate confidence and achieve highly’, using correct vocabulary to problem-solve.
  • Staff workload is managed consciously, and staff value the opportunities provided to ‘improve their knowledge’.

Areas to improve

  • In some subjects, leaders have not ‘carefully identified and sequenced the precise knowledge’ pupils need, making it difficult to track progress or address gaps.
  • Consequently, pupils in these subjects are ‘less confident in recalling what they have been taught before’ and how it links to current learning.
  • Sometimes, pupils needing extra reading support do not have enough opportunities to revisit learning, meaning they are ‘not catching up as rapidly as they could’.

Safeguarding

The arrangements for safeguarding are ‘effective’, with a ‘strong culture of safeguarding’ throughout the school and ‘robust’ systems for identifying and reporting concerns.
