There is no nursery class, although most pupils have experienced some pre-school education in playgroups or nurseries. The number on roll is rising and the school building has been extended with additional classrooms. The school has a resource centre for pupils with hearing impairment. Currently there are 239 pupils on roll. The proportion of pupils on the school’s register of special educational needs is above the national average. Eighteen pupils have statements of special educational need. These are associated with hearing impairment, physical disability or Downs Syndrome. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals is in line with the national average. Very few pupils are from ethnic minority groups. Five of the hearing impaired pupils are at an early stage of acquiring English. There is a wide range of ability on entry although overall attainment is in line with that expected for the age group. HOW GOOD THE SCHOOL IS This is a very good school. Pupils achieve well and by the time they leave school, pupils’ attainment in English, mathematics and science is good. The headteacher, governors and staff work well together to improve the school and maintain the high standards. The headteacher provides excellent leadership. She is well supported by senior staff and the school is managed very well. The teaching is good overall and much is very good. This helps pupils to make good progress. Very effective support ensures that all pupils are able to take a full part in all aspects of school life. The pupils have very positive attitudes to learning and their behaviour is very good. Overall, the school provides good value for money. What the school does well · The headteacher and senior managers provide excellent leadership and manage the school very well. They are very well supported by governors and staff who work hard to maintain and improve the good standards of attainment. · Pupils achieve well and, by Year 6, standards of attainment in English, mathematics and science are good. · The quality of teaching is good overall and much is very good. · A very good range of activities is provided to meet pupils’ interests and abilities; this includes a very wide range of activities outside lessons. · The provision for pupils’ personal development is very good. · Pupils are very well behaved; they have very positive attitudes, work hard and are keen to learn. · Pupils with special educational needs are provided with very good support and make good progress. · Teaching assistants are used very effectively and play a very important role in ensuring that all pupils have full access to the curriculum. · The school has developed a very effective partnership with parents and the local community. What could be improved · The provision for information and communication technology and its use to support learning across the curriculum. The areas for improvement will form the basis of the governors’ action plan. HOW THE SCHOOL HAS IMPROVED SINCE ITS LAST INSPECTION As a result of the excellent leadership provided by the headteacher and senior staff, improvement since the last inspection in 1997 has been very good. The school has taken positive and effective steps to address the areas for improvement identified in the last inspection report. Effective systems have been established to monitor and evaluate the quality of teaching and learning, and the quality of teaching has improved considerably since the previous inspection. Assessment procedures have been improved and are used effectively to track pupils’ progress and support curriculum planning. Parents are now kept well informed about pupils’ learning, the curriculum and the school’s work. Financial planning is very good and the budget is carefully monitored. The governing body is now well informed about the work of the Lower Darwen Primary School - 8 - March 2003 school. Standards of attainment in English, mathematics and science have risen at a higher rate than the national trend. Provision for information and communication technology has been improved, however, it is not yet being used sufficiently to assist pupils’ learning across the curriculum. STANDARDS The table shows the standards achieved by pupils at the end of Year 6 based on average point scores in National Curriculum tests. compared with similar Performance in: all schools Key schools 2000 2001 2002 2002 well above average A English D C A A above average B average C Mathematics E C A A below average D well below average E Science C C A* A* Pupils’ performance in the Year 6 National Curriculum tests in 2002 was well above the national average in English and mathematics. The results in science were very high (in the top 5 percent of schools nationally). The test results between 1998 and 2002 have improved at a rate above the national trend. Pupils achieve well. On the evidence of the inspection, their attainment is above the national expectations in English and mathematics and well above expectations in science. Pupils’ performance in the Year 2 National Curriculum assessments in 2002 was below the national average in writing and mathematics and well below the national average in reading. Compared with similar schools, attainment was below average in mathematics and well below average in reading and writing. Evidence from the inspection indicates that standards have improved and standards in all three subjects are now in line with the national expectation. There is a wide range of attainment on entry to the school although, overall, attainment is in line with that expected for the age group. Children in the reception classes achieve well. The great majority of children attain the early learning goals set for children of this age group and many move on to the National Curriculum programmes of study. Attainment in design and technology is good. Attainment in all other National Curriculum subjects is in line with the national expectation by Year 2 and Year 6.

  • Foreword This Chronicle Commenced Sunday, February
    ‘Festina Lente’ (Be Quick Without Impetuosity) Foreword This chronicle commenced Sunday, February 15th, 1998. The time is 7 PM in the evening. I, Norman John Bury, of 8 Saunders Street Westall, Clayton South, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, have decided that it is now time to make a serious commitment to begin this challenging task, so that future generations can have access to records in some traceable form of the past movements and whereabouts of our ancestors, for the sake of our immediate families, and for all generations to come. This chronicle will be continually updated as often as practible and the latest is Wednesday, June 18th, 2003, with information gathered since the above starting point. My wife Beverley (nee Doutch), and our two sons Peter John Bury, and Mark David Bury, need first to be recorded, and their families also. Peter John Bury, wife Lynnette Anne Bury (nee Bannon), son Aron John, and daughter Naomi Anne. Mark David Bury, wife Danita Anne Bury (nee Ozinger), daughters Carly Anne, and Amber Lucy. Their timelines and genealogical information are enclosed as an appendix to this work. Since the passing of my own father (John (Jack) Bury, and his father before him, (my grandfather, John William Bury), the subsequent discovery and sorting of private documents has provided information previously unavailable to us, as most of the knowledge that is needed to weave to-gether those threads from the past has gone to rest with their passing. By contacting the Lancashire Family History and Heraldry Society, and the Lancashire Evening Telegraph, we have discovered my grandfather’s brother, Esau Bury, who was at first thought to be the older brother of five children.
