What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 8 October 2024

Pupils benefit from an extremely strong education here. The school's focus on providing 'every child, every chance, every day' is central to the decisions of leaders and to the collective actions of staff. Consequently, pupils are supported to achieve well, regardless of any barriers. Pupils are polite, respectful and friendly. They are inclusive of their peers and welcoming towards visitors. During conversations, they are engaging and conduct themselves maturely. Acts of unkindness, such as bullying are rare. Pupils trust adults in the school to help them to resolve any such incidents. In lessons, pupils are committed to their learning. At social times, they play well with each other. Leaders have considered carefully the experiences that they want pupils to have during their time at the school. The 'Bentley High Street experiences' programme ensures that all pupils benefit from these. Some are linked to the curriculum, such as taking part in a debate or participating in the annual social justice project. The school prepares pupils well for these opportunities. Others, such as travelling by train, take account of the school's location. Many, including visits to museums and places of worship, are planned to build pupils' cultural capital.
