What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 1 October 2024

Pupils thrive at this vibrant and cheerful school, where they feel valued and excited to attend. They develop confidence and resilience through their strong and respectful relationships with the staff. The school has high expectations for pupil's achievements, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Right from the Nursery Year, pupils are happy and keen learners. As a result, pupils meet expectations and achieve well. Pupils learn across an interesting and engaging curriculum. Teachers present learning in interesting ways, which motivates and develops pupils' enthusiasm for learning. The school arranges events that enrich the school's curriculum, such as participating in a local lantern parade, visiting a castle, participating in music events and visiting places of worship. Pupils behave well in lessons and around the school. Outside, they enjoy playing together and chatting to their friends. They know someone is always available to talk to if they have concerns or worries. Parents are highly supportive of the school. One parent's comment was typical of many when stating, 'It is a fantastic school with staff who genuinely care about the education and welfare of the children.' They are rightly confident that their children are safe and looked after well.

What the school should improve

  • In some subjects, the curriculum is still being embedded and leaders have not checked fully how well new arrangements are helping pupils to deepen their knowledge. The school should evaluate the changes to the curriculum to ensure they have the desired impact on pupils' learning and use this information to support future teaching.
