A recent Estyn Inspection of Narberth CP School states that the school is a very happy, supportive and orderly community, where pupils are valued and respected. The quality of teaching was judged to be good or better in over two-thirds of the lessons as were the standards achieved by the pupils. There is a good relationship between teachers and pupils and this motivates the pupils; they relate well to one another and show respect and courtesy towards staff and visitors. The headteacher and deputy provide good leadership and the staff co-operate well and demonstrate considerable commitment to the school. The governing body is always supportive of the school. The quality provision for under fives was seen as good and very good in all areas. In KS1 and KS2, pupils' standards of achievement were satisfactory, good or very good in all National Curriculum subjects. The quality of provision for pupils with Special Education Needs is good and pupils' spiritual development is good and moral, social and cultural development is very good. Pupils relate well to one another, show respect and courtesy. Their good behaviour contributes to their learning. Due to the school population growing, this has outgrown the school building and site. Parking at the start and end of school was raised as an issue of concern, despite numerous requests from the school to use the appropriate parking spaces. This safety hazard for pupils will be addressed in the school action plan and it is hoped that parents will help to resolve this issue. Partnership with parents and the community is very good - the inspectors felt that the school is at the heart of the community that it serves and is greatly valued by that community.
