What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 24 September 2024
Pupils at Berkeley Academy are happy, polite and respectful. This is a highly inclusive school. The needs of pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are understood well by all in the school. Parents and carers speak positively of the school and consider it to be a nurturing and caring environment. There is a strong sense of community here. School leaders have high expectations for pupils' learning and behaviour. As a result, lessons are calm and purposeful. Around the school, pupils behave sensibly and show respect and kindness towards adults and each other. They know to talk to a responsible adult if they have any concerns. This helps to ensure that pupils feel safe and are kept safe at school. Pupils play an active part in their school and love to take on extra responsibilities, such as those of student council members, sports buddies and travel ambassadors, and carrying out corridor patrols. Visits are carefully aligned to the curriculum, with all pupils involved. These include outings to local parks and museums, and a recent trip to the Houses of Parliament. The majority of pupils attend many clubs. These include choir, yoga, basketball, poetry and creative writing.
What the school should improve
- In a few subjects, the school does not check what pupils have learned precisely. This means that some pupils' gaps in their learning are not addressed, which leads to difficulties in recalling the essential knowledge that leaders expect them to know and remember. The school needs to ensure that it identifies and checks the key knowledge that pupils have been taught, so that it can apply this to their current and future learning confidently.
