What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 17 January 2023

Staff and pupils describe their school as the 'Bellfield family'. Everyone has a positive role to play in demonstrating the qualities that lie behind the Bellfield BEAMS: behaviour, enthusiasm, attitude, manners, support. Pupils reflect in lessons and identify which of these qualities they have successfully displayed. Leaders promote positive behaviour through the use of 'restorative circles'. These 'circles' provide opportunities for open, honest conversations between pupils, parents, carers and staff and are held in a safe and supportive manner. This means, where possible, that pupils can resolve their own disagreements. Each class has two pupil restorative champions. They support pupils at playtime to settle their differences and play amicably. Pupils know what bullying is. They will use the restorative champions or adults to help sort it out if it happens. Leaders encourage pupils to be unique. Pupils have a secure understanding of difference and the importance of respecting others. Pupils say, 'Everyone is different here and we encourage everyone to be themselves.' Leaders offer pupils many opportunities to be leaders in each class through roles as curriculum or attendance champions. These roles enable pupils to have a direct impact on the school community. For example, the pupil attendance champions raise the profile of good attendance. They share top tips for being on time to school, such as packing your school bag before you go to bed to be ready for the morning.

What the school should improve

  • Pupils with SEND receive less effective support in some areas of the curriculum than in others. This can lead to them making uneven progress. Leaders should work with staff to improve support and targets for pupils with SEND to help them to make better progress across the curriculum.
