Kings Furlong Junior School were last visited by an Ofsted team on November 24th/25th 2010. The following is a brief summary of the main findings:

Kings Furlong Junior School is a good school. It has improved significantly since the last inspection. The purposeful leadership skills of the headteacher, combined with the strong support of the effective senior leadership team and the governing body, have resulted in pupils making good progress.

The school has a welcoming, warm and caring atmosphere which parents appreciate. Pupils are happy, enjoy lessons, behave well and are respectful of each other. The school instils a sense of respect and purpose through the ‘rights, respect and responsibility’ ethos the school has developed. As a parent commented, ‘A brilliant school which cares about its pupils.’ It continues to extend links with the local community, particularly with the neighbouring infant school.

Teaching is good, which provides consistency in learning throughout each year group. Teachers and teaching assistants know the pupils well. Lessons are lively and interesting and teachers tailor the activities to the pupils’ needs and abilities so that they are challenged well. There is good support for pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities which helps them to make equally good progress.
