What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 21 February 2023

The school's vision 'Love to Learn' is at the heart of everything this school has to offer. Pupils are happy and welcoming, and they love learning. Staff know pupils very well. They are determined that each child's journey through school will excite and engage them. There is a strong and caring ethos that permeates the school. Parents also see this. One parent said, 'The teachers and other staff are so caring and supportive.' Leaders and staff are ambitious for pupils. They have high expectations for behaviour and learning. Staff are highly motivated to meet the needs of pupils and give them the knowledge and skills to become curious learners. Pupils know that they are expected to behave well, and they usually do. They appreciate the rewards they receive when showing the school values of being creative, resilient, enthusiastic, aspirational, team players and experts (CREATE). Pupils say that bullying is rare but if it does happen, staff will sort it out well. Pupils say that trusted adults will help them. This makes them feel safe. Parents welcome the opportunities to be involved with the school. They appreciate the communication from school that keeps them informed about their child's learning and regular school events.

What the school should improve

  • Leaders have recently implemented a new approach to the teaching of early reading. This new approach enables younger pupils to become confident and fluent readers. However, it has not had time to demonstrate a positive impact on pupils' outcomes at the end of key stage 2. Leaders should ensure that the new approach is implemented thoroughly and effectively so that standards in reading improve over time.
  • Leaders have a clear vision for the curriculum and they know what they want pupils to learn. They are in the process of implementing a system for teachers to check what pupils can remember in the foundation subjects. Leaders should ensure that the new system is implemented effectively so that teachers have a clear understanding of what pupils know and can remember across the curriculum.
