What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 25 March 2025

Bramshall Meadows is a welcoming school. The school's motto of 'wonder, kindness and self-belief' is the foundation for the school's work. Staff are supportive, they encourage pupils to believe in themselves. Pupils live up to the school's high expectations and achieve well in reading, writing and mathematics. Staff have created a calm atmosphere for learning. Pupils are polite and respectful. There are clear expectations known as 'The Bramshall 5', explaining how pupils should sit and listen in lessons. Most pupils behave well during lessons, although just occasionally, lose their concentration. Playtimes are active, with games and sports on offer. Pupils are happy and safe. Pupils have a wide range of inclusive extra-curricular activities to choose from. These include arts and crafts, desk drumming and cricket. Pupils take part in sports competitions such as a dodgeball festival. The curriculum is enriched through visits, for example to a local farm where pupils learn about animal habitats. The school is committed to making sure that pupils experience a range of opportunities called 'The Bloom Agreement'. This includes opportunities to plant seeds in the school's muddy meadow and prepare a healthy meal. Pupils are ready for the next stage in their education.

What the school should improve

  • Some aspects of teaching are not as effective as they could be. In a minority of subjects, staff's knowledge of the school's intended curriculum is not fully secure. Additionally, teaching does not consistently address gaps in pupils' learning. As a result, pupils' achievement across the breadth of the curriculum is not as strong as it could be. The trust should support the school to strengthen these aspects of teaching so that pupils achieve equally well across the curriculum.
  • Support for some pupils with SEND is not as effective as it should be. Sometimes pupils with SEND are not achieving as well as they could. The school should make sure that all pupils with SEND are supported effectively so that they achieve their full potential.
