What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 28 March 2023

Pupils benefit educationally and socially from this inclusive school. Leaders' vision that 'every individual, every achievement and every moment matters' flows through the school. As a result, pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), achieve and take part fully in all aspects of the school day. Pupils learn about important values and enjoy a full curriculum offer. Pupils want to learn, and teachers make sure that clear rules and routines help them to do so. Pupils feel safe. They trust the adults around them to keep them safe and to help them overcome any problems they may have. Pupils understand that everyone is unique. They learn from each other's differences, and this helps them to value their own strengths. Pupils have a clear understanding of what bullying is. They say it is very rare. When it does occur, leaders deal with it immediately. Pupils access a curriculum that is designed to support them to live and learn in a diverse community. Adults model how to nurture friendships and how to contribute to society. Pupils are proud to be star readers, members of the school council and values leaders. Staff have high expectations for what all pupils can achieve.

What the school should improve

  • In the early years, some curriculum plans do not sufficiently detail the specific skills and knowledge children need for learning in Year 1. Leaders should ensure that plans are more precise so that staff prepare children most effectively for their future learning.
  • In a few subjects, assessment is not always used accurately in order to check what pupils know, or to identify their next steps. As a result, some pupils are less confident in recalling what they have previously learned. Leaders need to ensure that there is a commonly used and understood approach to assessment that checks pupils are applying and retaining the knowledge they have already learned, before moving them on to more complex tasks.
