Saint Sebastians Church of England Primary School is performing strongly, demonstrating a commitment to providing high-quality education and support for its pupils. The school's leadership effectively prioritizes the early years, ensuring children receive a robust start, with a curriculum that is ambitious and well-sequenced. Furthermore, while most pupils progress securely throughout their education, there are some targeted supports for disadvantaged pupils and those with special educational needs, which bolster their learning experience. However, some concerns about the consistency in addressing misconceptions and improving handwriting persist, and attendance remains below the national average despite recent improvements.
