Ofsted praise for ‘warm and welcoming’ Summerfield Primary School

Pupils are ‘surrounded by care’ at a West Leeds primary school, Ofsted inspectors have said.

Summerfield Primary School in Intake Lane, Rodley is described as a ‘warm and welcoming community’ in its latest Ofsted report published this week.

It is rated as ‘good’ for its quality of education, the behaviour and attitudes of pupils, personal development, leadership and early years provision.

“The school has high expectations of what pupils should achieved” the report says.

“Pupils quickly access support to engage in learning. For most pupils, this ensures they progress well through the curriculum.

“Reading is prioritised. Pupils, right from the early years, are proud to read to adults. They read at home. They enjoy sharing the range of books on offer and discuss their favourite authors.”

There is also praise for a ‘carefully designed’ curriculum, the teaching of phonics and early years provision, where pupils ‘develop curiosity and co-operate well together’.

The report says at key stage two, the changes made to the curriculum in writing and mathematics need more time to embed. This means that some pupils have gaps in their learning as they are not able to apply the knowledge they have learned as well as they should.

The full report from last month’s visit can be read here.
