What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 18 March 2025
The school has high ambition for each and every pupil at the school. It is determined to ensure that pupils have the best possible academic chances and leave school well prepared for their next stages. Pupils are proud of the school's respectful and kind culture. They are happy at school. Pupils, rightly, consider the school's values of belonging, learning, resilience and well- being to be important in shaping what the school is like. Throughout the school, pupils behave well. In lessons, pupils are keen to learn. They know that staff want the very best for them, and this gives them the trust and confidence that they need to try hard. Pupils treat each other well. They are tolerant and understanding of the few who find this more difficult because they know that the school will do what it can to help them improve. Pupils value the way that they are taught to keep themselves safe. They appreciate the care provided by staff and are certain that the school would help if they needed it. Pupils of all ages can define bullying accurately. They say that it is very unusual and know that staff would quickly resolve it if it occurred.
What the school should improve
- In a small number of subjects, the planned curriculum is not securely implemented. This means that teachers are not always clear about precisely how pupils' knowledge should build over time, which leads to pupils not learning as well as they could. The school should provide the required training and support for staff so that they can fully implement the curriculum.
