St. Joseph’s is a small hidden gem of a school who have recently attained a ‘GOOD’ status from Ofsted – ‘now good in all areas, thanks to the commitment of the staff, parents and pupils’.
The school will be holding an Open Morning on Saturday 10th December for any interested parents and future pupils to visit and view the facilities they have on offer. The open day will run from 10am to 12am and will include Christmas activities.
St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School is a happy and caring community. Pupils enjoy playing with each other in the well resourced grounds and make use of the space outside in creative ways, building dens and making up games in the orchard.
Leaders are passionate that all pupils have the best possible start in education and staff know all pupils well including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities and adapt the teaching to meet individual needs.
There are high expectations of behaviour and pupils respond well to the routines and directions set by the teachers. The school is calm and has a learning ‘buzz’ as pupils do their work.
New curriculum plans are in place in subjects such as modern foreign languages and geography, these are also highly structured with clear end points for pupils to achieve. Subject leaders work with secondary school colleagues, so that they understand the foundations needed for key stage 3. Teachers are skilled in adapting lessons to make sure pupils understand key concepts.
