INSPECTORS have told a Silsden school that it has "maintained the good quality of education".

Aire View Infant School was visited by Ofsted just before the summer break, and inspectors have released a short report into their findings.

When it was visited in 2010 the Elliott Street school was judged to be good, and this latest inspection says it has maintained that standard.

A letter written to head Vicky Bottomley says: "You, the governors and your leadership team have maintained the good quality of education the school provides since the previous inspection. As headteacher, you demonstrate an energy and enthusiasm for learning that is caught by all who work with you.

"Pupils enjoy attending Aire View.

"Outcomes for disadvantaged pupils have improved over the last two years and their achievement is now closer to the national average."

The report says pupils are attentive in lessons and talk enthusiastically about their work and the school.

Notable in the classrooms and corridors was the emphasis given to art, particularly painting, which was of a high standard.

During lessons, the school is quiet and calm, say inspectors. Pupils focus carefully on the tasks they are set with a good level of concentration.

Playtimes are friendly and highly active and discipline is effective, with pupils following instructions well.
