Sundridge Primary School has shown significant improvement since its last inspection, moving from a requires improvement grade to good across all areas evaluated. The school provides a welcoming environment where pupils are engaged and motivated to learn, with a strong emphasis on reading and phonics that helps all students make good progress. There is a clear commitment to inclusion, ensuring that pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities receive appropriate support. The positive culture within the school promotes good behaviour and relationships, while the leadership is proactive in involving students and staff in decision-making. However, the school is still addressing some curriculum areas that require further development, particularly in ensuring that all subjects have clearly defined knowledge and skills for pupils to acquire over time.
