Ofsted Report - September 2024

The school have developed an exceptionally strong programme to support pupils’ personal, social and health education (PHSE). Leaders have thought very carefully about exactly what pupils at Stafford Junior School need to know and understand to thrive now and in the future. Pupils talk very positively about how the school’s PSHE programme has helped them, for example, to learn to manage their anxiety and to build positive friendships. The programme has also supported the school in transforming behaviour within the school, as pupils learn to self-regulate and develop their working memory, flexible thinking and self-control. Alongside, the school have developed a very clear primary careers programme. This teaches pupils about a wide range of careers and pathways and helps pupils to understand the connections between what they learn at school, their own interests and possible further education and career options.
