All Saints C of E VC Infants School is currently facing challenges that have led to an overall effectiveness rating of 'requires improvement'. The new curriculum implemented by the school has not yet shown the intended impact on pupil readiness for the next stage of education. Despite a supportive and caring environment, the school has experienced leadership instability, which has affected the quality of education provided. However, the recent appointment of new senior leaders with a strong vision offers hope for future improvement.
