What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 16 April 2024
Pupils are deeply proud to be 'Hill Toppers'. They explain that they all live together well because they accept and value each other. Everyone belongs. Pupils are completely confident that their individual needs are understood by staff and peers alike. They feel safe to be themselves and are absolutely sure that all adults will help them if needed. The school's rules of 'be ready, be respectful, be safe' are understood by all. The youngest children resolve disagreements amicably. Older pupils explain how they accommodate each other with grace. Pupils lead projects to make the school even better through small changes such as recycling pens and larger projects such as refurbishing the library. Those about to leave cheerfully accept that they may not benefit from the improvements they have worked so hard to realise. Instead, they are happy that they have made the school better for others. Parents are fulsome in their praise. They say that staff 'go the extra mile' to make sure that all pupils feel welcome. Comments such as 'They have the interests of the child and their happiness at heart, which ultimately results in them wanting to learn more and succeeding,' are typical of the many expressed during the inspection.
