We are very proud of the Ofsted Monitoring Report which took place on 18th October 2018. The report fully reflects all the hard work and commitment demonstrated by our staff, and the excellent attitude of our children.
Highlights of the report include:
Your ambition is to ensure that all pupils who attend Edenfield develop a thirst for knowledge and a love of learning. You have successfully created a positive culture in which children enjoy their education.
The most recent information shows that, for pupils currently in the school, standards are above average. They are higher than they were at the last inspection and an increasing proportion of pupils achieve the higher standard. All groups of pupils are achieving well, including disadvantaged pupils and those who have special educational needs and/or disabilities.
You and your staff have developed and enhanced the curriculum to provide exciting opportunities and enrichment.
When I looked in pupils’ books, I was very impressed with the standard of presentation of work, which was consistent across all classes. The good, and sometimes better, progress pupils make in all subject areas was evident in their books in all subjects. You set high expectations for your leadership team, your staff and your pupils.
Teachers are effective in providing consistently challenging work for the most able pupils so that their progress is strong. Standards have risen sharply…
Safeguarding has the highest priority for you and your staff. It is seen as the responsibility of everyone.
The school’s ethos and curriculum are successful in developing pupils’ confidence and self-esteem.
There are numerous examples of strong and effective subject leadership across the curriculum.
