Ofsted & School Performance
Inspection and School Performance
At Sarum St Paul's Church of England Primary School, we are committed to providing every child with a high-quality education in a caring, inclusive and ambitious environment where every child is known, valued and encouraged to flourish.
External inspection and published performance information are important ways of evaluating our work and helping us to continue improving. Alongside these measures, we also place great value on the wider experiences we provide, ensuring children develop academically, socially, emotionally and spiritually throughout their time with us.
Our Ofsted Inspection
We were delighted that our school was judged Good by Ofsted following our graded inspection in December 2024, with Outstanding for pupils' personal development.
The inspection recognised the caring and inclusive culture of our school, the positive relationships between pupils and staff and our commitment to helping every child thrive. We are particularly proud that our provision for pupils' personal development was recognised as Outstanding, reflecting our dedication to nurturing confident, compassionate and well-rounded young people.
While we are proud of this outcome, we remain ambitious for every child and are committed to continually developing and improving every aspect of school life.
School Performance
The Department for Education publishes information about the performance of all schools, including pupils' attainment and progress at the end of Key Stage 2.
Published performance data provides a useful snapshot of academic outcomes, but it is only one measure of a school's effectiveness. At Sarum St Paul's, we are equally committed to developing children's character, wellbeing, confidence, resilience and a love of learning alongside strong academic achievement.
