Read what Ofsted said (6)

From Ofsted report, inspected May 2023

Strengths

  • “Across Walker Primary School there is warmth, ambition and a real sense of community.”
  • “Leaders have the highest expectations of all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).”
  • “Pupils enjoy coming to school every day and learning a wide range of subjects.”

To improve

  • “Leaders have recently implemented a range of new approaches to the curriculum in some foundation subjects.”
  • “Teaching in these subjects does not ensure that pupils have opportunities to develop secure knowledge.”
  • “Leaders’ use of summative assessment in a few subjects does not identify curriculum endpoints precisely.”
