What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 26 March 2024
At this school, pupils become resilient, determined, collaborative and curious learners as members of 'Team Binstead'. Pupils strive to develop these core values by the time they leave. Pupils behave well and get on well with each other. There is a calm and purposeful atmosphere in the school. Pupils who need extra support are very well cared for. Pupils are usually able to sort any disagreements out themselves. They are respectful to each other and enjoy their time at school. Staff are ambitious in the curriculum they provide for pupils. Pupils work hard in lessons and try their best in all subjects to learn as well as they can. The school is proud of its involvement and success in different sports. Pupils' experiences in performing arts are increasing well. This curriculum breadth allows the pupils to become rounded learners. Pupils respond very well to these high-quality opportunities. They are also keen to give back to the school and take on pupil leadership opportunities. These include school councillors, house captains and sports leaders. These roles mean pupils make a valuable contribution to the school.
What the school should improve
- The school is developing its processes for checking how well pupils learn the intended curriculum. However, in some foundation subjects, the school is not yet using this information as effectively as it could to develop pupils' learning further. The school should ensure that staff have sufficient information to identify key gaps in pupils' learning so that they can help pupils to achieve more.
