What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 11 March 2025
Pupils prosper at this warm and inclusive school. The school has high expectations of pupils. This includes for pupils who attend the school's specially resourced provision for pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). From different starting points many pupils achieve very well. Many parents agree, with one comment being typical of many when they stated, 'Belgrave is a welcoming, community school. It is where my children have succeeded and thrived.' Beginning in the early years, children learn explicitly how to behave and develop positive attitudes to learning. Relationships are warm and positive. Pupils learn how to understand their feelings and behaviour. There is an extremely harmonious atmosphere across school. As a result, behaviour throughout the school is exceptional. Pupils play an important part in shaping their school through the many opportunities provided for them to lead and be active citizens. The school ensures that pupils understand potential risks in the local community and learn how to overcome these. The school uses technology in innovative ways in all aspects of its work. Pupils are highly competent in using technology as part of their learning as well as using it to report any issues they may have in school.
What the school should improve
- Leaders have worked assiduously to improve the quality of education in the school's specially resourced provision. However, staff do not consistently implement pupils' communication systems well enough for them to access learning. This impacts on some pupils' learning and progress. The school should provide support for staff to ensure that communication systems are used effectively so as pupils with SEND can learn well.
