Strengths
- “Pupils thrive at this welcoming and inclusive school.”
- “Expertly led by the headteacher, everyone strives for pupils to ‘shine bright’ and ‘reach for the stars’ in all they do.”
- “This helps pupils get off to a great start in their education at Ashton Keynes Church of England Primary School.”
To improve
- “However, in a minority of subjects, leaders have not fully defined the knowledge and concepts that pupils must learn and remember.”
- “As a result, even though published outcomes in 2022 were strong, pupils do not deepen their knowledge sufficiently in a few areas of the wider curriculum.”
- “Furthermore, some subject leaders do not reliably know how well pupils learn across the school in these areas of the curriculum.”
