What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 11 March 2025
Staff make learning enjoyable for pupils. Pupils are inquisitive and quickly settle to learn. They like making new friends. Pupils are supportive of one another and show kindness. They say that they can play with anyone during social times in this caring school. The school has high expectations for pupils' behaviour and achievement. Pupils achieve very well in national assessments at the end of key stage 2. Many pupils meet the high expectations the school has for their behaviour. They benefit from learning in calm and purposeful lessons. Pupils speak with passion about the trips and visits that they go on. Pupils in Year 3 value their overnight residential. Children in Reception enjoy their visit to a local castle. The exciting range of trips and visits broaden pupils' experience. Pupils learn about how to manage risk on these trips. For example, pupils are taught how to check for cars before they exit the coach in a safe manner. These deliberate activities help pupils develop independence. Such memorable experiences build 'Mayflower Memories' that pupils will cherish after they leave the school.
What the school should improve
- Occasionally, in a small number of subjects, the tasks that pupils are set do not enable them to extend their knowledge as well as they could. When this happens, they do not learn aspects of the curriculum in sufficient depth. The school should ensure that it provides pupils with appropriate opportunities to develop their learning to further deepen their understanding.
