Clough and Risegate Community Primary School is performing well overall, with a 'Good' rating in the latest Ofsted inspection conducted in June 2024. The school showcases significant strengths in behaviour and attitudes, which have been rated as outstanding. Pupils demonstrate pride in their school and engage positively with their learning environment, benefiting from strong pastoral care and a broad curriculum that is ambitious and well-structured in core subjects like mathematics and reading. The positive involvement of parents and the supportive leadership contribute to the school's nurturing atmosphere. However, there are areas for improvement, particularly in ensuring that pupils are consistently challenged to deepen their learning across all subjects. The school has not fully clarified the key knowledge and skills to be taught across the curriculum, which may hinder pupils from attaining their full potential. Despite these concerns, the commitment of the staff to meeting the needs of pupils, particularly those with special educational needs and/or disabilities, is commendable, and overall, the school is positioned well for continued success.
