What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 10 October 2023
Pupils at Brandlehow enjoy coming to school. Relationships are warm and respectful here. Pupils follow a broad and stimulating curriculum. They are enthusiastic about the subjects they study. The school is highly inclusive. Staff have high expectations of what all pupils can achieve. Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) follow the same curriculum and receive extra help if they need it. Pupils behave well in lessons and around the school site. Children in the early years are taught to follow daily routines. If behaviour falls below expectations, staff respond quickly and calmly. They ensure that there is extra support in place to help all pupils to be successful, including those who struggle. Pupils cooperate well with each other. They are safe and happy here. The development of pupils' character is exceptional and sits at the heart of the school's curriculum. Older pupils are confident to take on responsibilities, such as being representatives in the school parliament, house captains and mentors for younger pupils. Pupils keenly take part in a rich and diverse range of high-quality wider opportunities. These include chess club, poetry club, visits to places of interest such as the science museum and making 'grand friends' at a local community centre.
What the school should improve
- Some aspects of the school's curriculum are not as well developed. In a few subjects and in the early years, implementation does not always match the school's ambitious plans. This means that some pupils do not consistently secure the knowledge they need across different subjects or areas of learning. Leaders should ensure that all staff have suitable training to deliver the intended curriculum effectively, regularly checking the impact of actions taken.
