What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 3 October 2023
Pupils, including children in the early years, feel happy and safe at this infant school. They enjoy welcoming visitors, and they are enthusiastic when talking about their learning. Staff encourage pupils to be curious and inquisitive about the topics that they study. Pupils behave well, and they treat each other with care and respect. Staff build strong, positive relationships with pupils. Pupils are confident that staff will listen to them and help them if they have any concerns or worries. Pupils have a strong view about what it means to be a good friend, and they are keen to look after each other. The school has high expectations of what pupils should achieve. Pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), typically learn and achieve well across the curriculum. Pupils have a strong awareness of how their emotions can affect the way in which they behave. This helps pupils to understand the impact that events can have on their readiness to learn. Staff support pupils well to manage their feelings. Pupils spoke animatedly about the experiences that they have enjoyed at school, especially trips such as a recent visit to a local art museum. They are appreciative of the clubs that are available to them. Pupils were particularly eager to show inspectors the sign language that they have learned, including the sign for chocolate cake.
What the school should improve
- Pupils who find reading difficult do not receive effective enough support to help them catch up. This hinders their reading fluency and confidence. The school should ensure that staff are equipped well to help these pupils to catch up quickly in reading.
- In a few subjects, pupils' knowledge of earlier learning is not as secure as it is in those areas where the curriculum is more embedded. This means that some pupils are not fully prepared for the new learning. The school should ensure that pupils have the chance to revisit what they have been taught so that they remember it over time.
