What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 6 February 2024

All pupils, including the most disadvantaged, are fully included and well cared for. Pupils and staff are inclusive of others at all times. Pupils relish the care and support provided, especially in quieter spaces such as 'The Cove'. The school has a calm and orderly environment where pupils are well behaved and supportive. This enables all pupils to participate in the school's community and to learn alongside their peers effectively. The school has high expectations of pupils. The motto of 'Achieving Potential, Producing Success' is understood and used by pupils across the school. They are proud to be part of the school and recognise the high expectations the school has for them. They live up to these expectations, demonstrating the school values in how they behave and also in their learning. Pupils love the different subjects they learn. Consequently, all pupils achieve well. Pupils value the opportunities the school provides. They enjoy a wide range of experiences, including sports fixtures, museum trips and being part of regional music festivals. This results in pupils' improved understanding of the world around them. Pupil leaders make an effective and positive contribution to the school community.

What the school should improve

  • In a small number of subjects, the curriculum requires further refinement. As a result, the content does not build in a precise, logical sequence, and pupils' learning is variable. The school should precisely identify the essential knowledge and skills it intends pupils to learn, as it does in other subjects. It should then review how well pupils can recall the essential content over time.
  • Persistent absence for some groups of pupils is too high. This means that some pupils are missing out on important learning. Leaders must continue to refine their approaches to rapidly reduce persistent absence for pupils, including those who are disadvantaged.
