Owslebury Primary School is performing well overall, with leaders establishing a strong focus on teaching and an ambitious curriculum. The school has a positive culture of safeguarding, ensuring that pupils feel safe and valued. There are notable strengths in the early years, where children are supported to develop strong foundational skills in language and mathematics. However, there are concerns regarding pupils' achievement in reading and mathematics, particularly for disadvantaged pupils, and attendance levels, which have not met expected standards historically. Current efforts to address these issues are underway, but it is too soon to assess their full impact.
