Kelvedon Hatch Community Primary School achieved high ratings in all five assessment areas during the Ofsted inspection on May 14 and 15, with the report published on June 30. The school was praised for its warm atmosphere, engaging pupils, and a revised behavior policy. Initiatives like 'Funky Fridays' have notably improved attendance. An effective PSHE program and access to outdoor activities enhance student support. The curriculum is well-structured and adaptable for all students, though some subjects showed gaps in knowledge retention due to infrequent staff check-ins.
The inspection report praised the 'warm and friendly' atmosphere at the school and the way pupils 'focus, engage and are interested in their learning.'
Ofsted noted the impact of the school's 'revised behaviour policy' and the success of initiatives like 'Funky Fridays' which encourage pupils to dance their way into school to improve attendance.
The school's curriculum is considered 'broad and well-sequenced' and is adapted to meet the needs of all pupils at the school, including those with special educational needs or disabilities (SEND).
Headteacher Victoria Townsend expressed pride in the achievements of the school community, emphasizing her passion for giving every child the best possible start in life.
