East Tilbury Primary School is performing well, maintaining the standards set in its previous inspection. The school has a strong leadership team and a nurturing environment where pupils feel happy, valued, and included. The curriculum is ambitious and engaging, promoting high expectations and encouraging pupils to take pride in their work. While there are notable successes, particularly in behavior and support for pupils with additional needs, some subjects have not yet reached the school's aspirational targets for student achievement, especially in mathematics and early reading assessments.
