Crossgates Primary School is performing well overall, achieving a 'Good' rating in all areas except for behaviour and attitudes, which are deemed outstanding. The school fosters a safe and nurturing environment where pupils feel proud to attend, and they display exemplary behaviour. The curriculum is ambitious and well-structured, leading to good academic outcomes for most pupils. Parents appreciate the strong support staff provide to students, particularly those with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). However, some pupils struggle with reading fluency due to inconsistent support, which indicates a need for further improvement in this area.
