What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 4 October 2023
Pupils enjoy being at their school and happily learn and play together. Leaders make sure that all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), do their very best. During their time at school, pupils achieve well. The school is a calm environment where pupils behave well and show respect for each other and adults. Staff promote the school's values positively. Staff make sure that pupils are safe here. They help pupils to learn how to keep themselves. For example, pupils talked about the different ways of staying safe online. Pupils know to talk to a trusted adult if they have any worries. Pupils, staff and families feel part of a school community with a warm, family atmosphere. Staff help to develop pupils' character through their extensive work with the community. For example, they sing in the local care home and raise money for the local hospice. Running the daily mile is a healthy routine enjoyed by all pupils and staff.
What the school should improve
- In some subjects, teaching does not implement the intentions of the curriculum securely. This means that pupils do not secure the knowledge and skills they need for more complex learning. The school should check that the intended curriculum is delivered equally well across all subjects.
- In some foundation subjects, the school has not identified what subject-specific knowledge they want pupils to retain. This limits pupils' deeper understanding of important content. The school needs to ensure that curriculum planning sets out the key content that pupils need to learn and when.
