Clyst Hydon Primary has made notable improvements since its last inspection and is now performing at a good level across all areas. The school has established a supportive and nurturing environment where pupils feel safe, respected, and enjoy a strong sense of community. With high expectations for behaviour, pupils demonstrate good manners and engagement in their learning. However, while the reading curriculum has seen positive advancements, some pupils who struggle with reading have not been provided with books that match their phonics knowledge, which affects their fluency and confidence.
