Overton CE Primary School was inspected on 25 and 26 March 2025. The report rating our school Good in all areas and Outstanding for Behaviour.
We received much more feedback than is included in the report so wanted to share with you some of the highlights. Thank you all for helping us every day to make this school such a wonderfully inclusive place to be. Our staff were praised for their dedication and hard work to meet the diverse need of our children. We could not be prouder of the inspection report that praises the behaviour and mature attitudes of the children, the strength of our curriculum, the quality of the teaching and the relationships between staff and children. The pastoral support of the school is seen as a real strength and the inspectors praised the way that everyone nurtures the children. The inspectors spoke to many different children and they all explained that they felt safe, free from being bullied and that poor behaviour was dealt with effectively. Our Governors were noted as knowledgeable and fulfilling their roles with dedication – as the inspector said “Governors do a lot here”.
As always, we are proud to educate, care for and celebrate the wonderful children of Overton CE Primary School and we hope that you will join us in spreading the word, that one parent put so beautifully – ‘It’s an amazing school!’. We are not complacent or willing “to rest on our laurels” as pointed out by the Lead Inspector but will continually strive to improve.
