One parent wrote: 'Now our son has moved to Palatine, he is fully included, supported and nurtured every day. All parents who responded to Parent View, Ofsted's online questionnaire, and those who spoke to inspectors were complimentary about the school. We agreed that your systems to track pupils' academic progress would benefit from fine-tuning so that it becomes even more useful to leaders and staff. These include building on the work that has already taken place to develop the effectiveness of teaching assistants and reducing teacher workload.
You have also identified some key areas for improvement. Consequently, you have an accurate view of the strengths and weakness of the school. Since the formation of the new senior leadership team, you and your team have continued to reflect on the impact that your actions are having on pupils' outcomes. As a result, pupils make strong progress across all aspects of their development. Questioning from teachers is a particular strength and builds on pupils' prior learning. Inspectors required leaders to ensure that the most able pupils received work that was challenging and that teachers planned activities that supported pupils' next steps in their learning.Įxpectations for pupils are high, and learning is at the right level for pupils of all abilities. You have worked hard to address the areas for improvement identified at the time of the previous inspection. Several teachers praised senior leaders for the ongoing support that they receive and the commitment that leaders show to improving teachers' work-life balance. Staff who completed the online questionnaire were overwhelmingly positive about your leadership. You and the governing body have managed these changes well, although you acknowledge that the impact of some of these changes is in its infancy. The organisation of middle leadership has also changed recently. Over the last four years there has been a large turnover in teaching staff. Since the previous inspection, there have been significant changes to the school. Staff and governors share your high aspirations for pupils and, under you and your capable leadership team, the school is moving forward at a rapid pace. You have led the school with determination and commitment over the past four years, making the necessary changes to ensure that pupils are at the heart of all that the school does. The leadership team has maintained the good quality of education in the school since the last inspection.
The visit was the first short inspection carried out since the school was judged to be good in January 2013.
