What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 15 November 2022
Pupils enjoy attending this inclusive school. They talk confidently about the school's values. They understand how these values help them to be loving, caring and supportive of others. Parents and carers are positive about the school. Many comment on the school's 'family feel' and the way in which staff care for pupils. Staff have high expectations for pupils' behaviour and conduct. Pupils understand these expectations and strive to achieve them. Pupils are polite and behave well, both in lessons and around the school. This begins in the early years, where children follow instructions well and show high levels of independence. Pupils feel safe. Parents agree. Relationships between staff and pupils are strong. Pupils understand what bullying is. They say that it does not happen often. If it does, pupils are confident that adults will deal with it quickly. Pupils enjoy the range of activities on offer to them, such as sports festivals and visits from polar explorers and firefighters. They relish the opportunities they have to be 'community' and 'friendship' ambassadors, members of the 'eco school' and school council. Pupils say that this helps them to develop their confidence and make a difference to their school.
What the school should improve
- In some subjects, leaders have not mapped out the precise sequence of knowledge that pupils should learn and remember. As a result, pupils do not build on previous knowledge that enables them to know more and remember more over time. Leaders should ensure that the essential knowledge that pupils need to know and remember in each subject is clear and carefully set out.
