What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 5 June 2024

Pupils are happy and thrive in this popular school. They feel proud to be a part of this diverse school community. Pupils here are safe and cared for. They can name adults who will listen and help them if they have a worry or concern. The school has high ambitions for what pupils can achieve. Pupils study a broad range of subjects. Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) receive strong support to access the curriculum alongside their peers. Most pupils achieve at age expectations and are well prepared for their next stage of learning. Pupils' behaviour is exemplary. They focus intently in lessons. Pupils behave equally well at lunchtimes and in the playground. Pupils are polite and courteous to adults. They take responsibilities seriously, such as serving on school council, sports ambassadors and as 'digi-champions'. The school has ensured that pupils experience new opportunities both within and beyond the local community. Pupils compete in a wide range of sporting events and love to sing with other schools. Older pupils eagerly anticipate their residential trips in the summer term. These experiences broaden pupils' horizons and develop their confidence and independence.

What the school should improve

  • The quality of subject leadership and monitoring is developing in some areas of the school's work. The school has not been able to ensure that all staff, including support staff, have the knowledge and expertise required to implement the ambitious curriculum. This means pupils' learning does not sometimes develop as effectively as it could in all areas of the curriculum. The school should support subject leaders further so that they are able to check what is working well and what needs further development so that the curriculum aims are fully realised.
