Overfields Primary School has been rated as good overall following its first inspection since becoming an academy. The school fosters a warm and welcoming environment where pupils feel safe and supported in their learning. Strong relationships between staff and students contribute to a positive atmosphere, encouraging pupils to be engaged and eager learners. The leaders are committed to achieving high standards for all pupils, including those with special educational needs and disabilities, and have designed a well-structured curriculum that promotes personal development remarkably well, earning an outstanding rating in that area. However, there are areas for improvement, particularly in ensuring consistency in how teachers assess pupils' understanding across all subjects. In a minority of subjects, checks on pupils’ retention of essential knowledge are not as thorough, which can lead to misunderstandings. Despite this, the overall commitment of the staff and the proactive involvement of parents and trustees indicates a strong foundation for continued development and growth at the school.
