What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 14 January 2025
Pupils thrive at this warm and nurturing school. They enjoy coming to school to see their friends and complete interesting learning. Pupils have ownership of the school values, as Year 5 pupils choose the ones the school will focus on the following year. They communicate their choices to the rest of the school, and all pupils understand them. Staff have high expectations of pupils, and pupils have high expectations of each other. Pupils are extremely respectful and listen carefully to each other's thoughts and ideas. They respect everyone's similarities and differences. Pupils trust the adults at school and know that they will support them with any issues that they might have. As a result, behaviour around the school is admirable. Pupils are well focused in lessons and thrive on discussions, where they clearly present their point. They know that staff want them to do their very best at all times, and they ensure that they do this. Pupils are extremely confident and precise when they articulate the learning that they have been doing. Therefore, they achieve very well. Pupils can develop leadership skills in the school, for example in the school council, which responds to pupils' requests and ideas to make positive changes within the school.
