What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 7 March 2023

Pupils enjoy attending this caring and happy school. They achieve well and feel safe. There is a strong sense of community. The school's learning values of 'inquisitiveness, independence, collaboration and resilience' underpin how pupils approach their learning. All staff have high expectations of pupils and their behaviour. Staff apply these expectations consistently. Pupils feel able to learn without disruption. They feel listened to by staff. Pupils are polite, considerate and kind to each other. Incidents of bullying are rare. Comprehensive records show that when it does happen, adults deal with it promptly and effectively. Pupils enjoy the wide range of opportunities that the school offers. They benefit from swimming and 'bikeability' sessions in every year group across the school. As a result of these activities, they learn how to keep themselves and others safe. Parents and carers are positive about the work of the school. They appreciate the care and support their children get in this small village school. A typical comment from a parent was, 'I can honestly say this school has given our children the best start we could have wished for.'

What the school should improve

  • Leaders' work to refine the curriculum is not complete. In a few foundation subjects, this means pupils do not make effective links between previous and current learning. Leaders should continue to develop the sequencing of knowledge and vocabulary in all subjects.
