A school near Wisbech has been rated as ‘good’ in all areas by Ofsted.

This was the first inspection that Anthony Curton Primary School, in Walpole St Peter, has received since the COVID-19 pandemic began.

The report said that "pupils enjoy coming to school and they feel happy and safe at playtimes.

"They know the school values and are kind to each other and care for one another".

The report went on to say that pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities also learn from the “well-planned and ambitious curriculum, which is rich in knowledge.”

It added that "the arrangements for safeguarding are also effective".

To further improve, the Ofsted inspector said: "The school should ensure that teachers plan activities that are designed to meet all pupils’ needs. This will help pupils to learn and remember more."

It added: "The school should ensure that teachers use checks on pupils’ learning to address misconceptions."

Headteacher, Dawn Liddle, said: “I am so proud of the staff and children.

“They were not phased at all by the inspectors coming round and talking to them about what it’s like to be a part of the school.

“We know that we are a really good school and so it’s really pleasing that the two inspectors agreed with us after their rigorous checks.”
