Horsley CofE Primary School, which was previously rated good, is currently undergoing an ungraded inspection highlighting a decline in certain areas since its last assessment. The school maintains a warm environment with strong support for its pupils, emphasizing the well-being of students and the importance of reading in their curriculum. However, the implementation of the curriculum shows inconsistency, and the school lacks a robust system to monitor pupils' learning effectively across all subjects. A focus on British values and diversity is needed to better prepare students for life beyond their local community.
