What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 28 January 2025
Pupils enjoy coming to school, playing with their friends and learning. Pupils are taught to respect each other and demonstrate the school's values in their interactions. Beginning in early years, children are taught to check in on their emotions so they can be ready to learn. As a result, pupils behave well. Pupils are taught to stay safe and know who their trusted adults are. The school prioritises the pastoral care that children receive. Pupils are kept safe in their school community. Pupils benefit from the wide extra-curricular offer at the school. All pupils can develop their confidence and teamwork through the clubs available, including taekwondo, circus skills, fencing and table tennis. They enhance their leadership skills through a range of roles as class monitors, buddies and school councillors. Pupils contribute to the local community through different fundraising initiatives alongside their teachers. Leaders have high expectations for pupils. They, in turn, are keen to rise to these. Over their time at school, pupils achieve in line with their peers nationally, supporting them to be ready for the next stage of their education.
What the school should improve
- In some subjects, assessment is not used as effectively to check what pupils know, identify misconceptions and inform the next steps of teaching. As a result, some pupils are not given sufficient time to practise and embed ideas before they apply them to more complex concepts. This means, at times, pupils struggle to connect their learning to larger ideas. The school should ensure that assessment routines and information are used consistently to adapt teaching and to help pupils deepen their knowledge across the curriculum.
