St Augustine’s Catholic Primary School is performing well overall, achieving a 'Good' rating in most areas of its operations. The school has a strong sense of community, where pupils feel cared for and valued, contributing to an outstanding behavior and attitudes rating. The curriculum is broad and ambitious, with a clear focus on helping students revisit and reinforce their learning, particularly in reading and vocabulary development. However, the school has identified some weaknesses in assessment practices in a few subjects, where improvements are needed to close gaps in pupils’ learning effectively. This is the school's first inspection since it became part of the Xavier Catholic Trust and post-pandemic, which makes the positive findings particularly noteworthy given the context of returning to normal educational operations.
