Pupils and staff at East Calder Primary School are celebrating after receiving an excellent report card.
Education Scotland inspectors spent time in the school in February this year and during their visit, they talked to parents/carers and children, and worked closely with the headteacher and staff.
Inspectors noted children across the school as happy, confident and respectful towards each other and adults. Pupils have a genuine interest in their learning and benefit from many valuable opportunities to achieve success and develop a wide range of skills.
They also observed a strong commitment from the school’s staff team to improving their skills and knowledge. This culture of professional learning and shared values is enhancing approaches to learning, teaching and assessment.
Senior leaders and staff use data about children’s learning very effectively. This is helping staff to have a firm understanding of children’s progress and maintain consistently high levels of attainment over time.
Staff use digital technology very well to extend and enhance children’s learning. As children move through the school, they become increasingly skilled in using digital technology creatively to support their learning. In March 2024, East Calder Primary School became the first school in West Lothian, and one of the first schools in Scotland to achieve the ‘Endorsement Digital Schools Award’ from Digital Schools Awards Scotland – this award recognises the schools continued and sustained strength and developments in their digital learning and teaching.
Headteacher Fiona Stewart said: “I am thrilled to see our pupils and staff have been regarded so highly by inspectors during their visit to East Calder Primary School. We are extremely proud of all
