What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 13 September 2022

Broadstone Hall is a happy and welcoming school. Pupils said that they enjoy coming to school and that they feel safe. They said that staff know them well. Pupils explained that teachers and other adults care deeply about their welfare. Across key stages 1 and 2, and in the early years, most pupils and children are hard working. They demonstrate resilience and independence in their learning. Overall, pupils cooperate well with each other, and they respect each other's points of view. Staff have high expectations of what pupils can and should achieve. Pupils respond with positivity to the work that their teachers prepare for them. In the main, they achieve well. Children in the early years also make the most of their time in school, learning new knowledge and skills. Teachers expect pupils, and children in the early years, to behave well. Pupils' behaviour is consistently managed well by all staff. Pupils receive frequent recognition for their positive behaviour. They are awarded 'Always' badges, which they wear with pride. Pupils are confident that when any rare incidents of bullying occur, adults take quick and effective action to sort them out. Pupils take on many wider leadership opportunities, for example as a member of the school council.

What the school should improve

  • In one or two subjects, leaders have not thought carefully enough about the order of the knowledge that they want pupils to learn. Consequently, some pupils do not achieve as well as they should. Leaders should make sure that they finalise their curriculum thinking in these remaining few subjects so that new knowledge is ordered in a logical way.
  • In a minority of curriculum areas, teachers are not as secure in their subject knowledge as they should be. On occasions, this hinders how well pupils learn new information. Leaders should make sure that they provide teachers with the training that they require to enable them to deliver subject content more effectively.
