What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 28 November 2023
Bengeworth CE Academy is a happy and vibrant place for pupils to learn. Staff know families very well and there is a strong sense of community spirit. Each morning, pupils enter school with smiles, keen to meet their friends and teachers. They feel safe at school and trust adults to help them when needed. Pupils gain a strong understanding of the school's guiding values and they put these values into practice. Pupils behave well and appreciate having their positive behaviours recognised and rewarded by staff. The school ensures that all pupils study a broad range of subjects. Staff work hard to bring the curriculum to life and plan activities that pupils enjoy. They connect the curriculum through 'global themes' that broaden pupils' understanding of the world. Older pupils talk about current events and social issues with thought and maturity. Pupils learn well and are prepared for the next phase of their education by the time they leave the school. The school's work to promote pupils' personal development is exceptional. The school goes beyond the expected. Pupils thrive by taking part in a rich and diverse set of experiences that spark their talents and interests. There is something for everyone.
What the school should improve
- Sometimes adults do not choose activities that link closely to the curriculum's aims. This means that pupils do not always learn as well as they might. Leaders should further develop staff's understanding of how to select teaching activities that always align with the intended curriculum aims so pupils learn effectively.
- The school's work to monitor the implementation and impact of the curriculum is not fully developed. This limits leaders in their work to develop the curriculum further. The school should ensure the curriculum is being consistently implemented as leaders intend, so that pupils always develop a deep understanding of all the subjects they study.
