Cheveley CofE Primary School continues to perform well, maintaining its status as a good school. Pupils love attending this small and welcoming school, where they feel safe and cared for by the staff. The leadership team has worked hard to develop and improve the curriculum, ensuring that it is well-mapped and engaging for mixed-age classes. Although pupils are achieving well, there is an identified need for further refinement in the curriculum's focus on critical knowledge retention and application, particularly for students with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND).
