What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 9 March 2023

Pupils are proud of their school. They enjoy being part of the 'Antingham family'. Pupils speak positively about their experiences. They say that everyone gets along together. Pupils say they are happy to welcome everyone to their school. Pupils are happy and safe. It is a place where 'everyone knows your name.' Pupils enjoy warm relationships with adults, and they respond positively to high expectations. They work hard in class and try their best. They earn rewards such as star of the week and headteacher's certificates, which motivates them in their work and play. Pupils behave well in lessons and during social times. They understand the school rules. Pupils have created class charters to make clear how everyone should treat one another. Where any problems occur, leaders have clear systems to support the few pupils who struggle to manage their behaviour. Pupils say bullying is rare. They are confident that staff deal quickly with any concerns. Pupils enjoy developing their leadership responsibilities. As play buddies or reading ambassadors, they are keen to help peers, including younger pupils. Weekly bushcraft lessons are eagerly anticipated. Pupils learn about their wider responsibilities for keeping safe and looking after their local area.

What the school should improve

  • A few aspects of the curriculum are in the earlier stages of implementation. As a result, pupils do not build a deep understanding to become more expert in everything they are learning. Leaders should ensure that teachers understand how to deliver the content of their plans to secure pupils' understanding across all subjects.
  • Some parents are not clear about how the curriculum is meeting the needs of all pupils in classes with mixed ages. They do not understand the reasoning and intent behind why classes are structured in this way. As a result, they are not confident that pupils are making progress in their learning. Leaders should continue to build on the work they have started so that parents have a stronger confidence in the progress their child is making through the curriculum.
