SS Peter and Paul Catholic Primary School continues to uphold its good status since the last inspection in March 2018. The school creates an environment where pupils feel happy and safe, coupled with high expectations for behavior and learning. Parents express strong support for the educational quality, and pupils engage actively in a well-structured curriculum. However, some areas highlight a need for improvement, specifically regarding curriculum coherence in a few subjects and effective communication skills for certain key stage 1 pupils, influenced by challenges from the pandemic.
