What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 2 March 2023
Pupils benefit from a high-quality and wide-ranging curriculum at Broadway First School. Leaders have ensured that the curriculum is ambitious for all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Pupils thoroughly enjoy their learning through interesting topics such as 'Amazing Africa' and 'Chariot Champions'. Leaders have carefully designed the curriculum to enable pupils to successfully build on their previous learning. The education pupils receive lives up to the school's motto: 'Inspire, Challenge, Achieve', and pupils do achieve very well. Pupils' behaviour is exemplary. Staff and pupils care for one another. For example, pupils willingly support their friends on the 'rainbow bench' when they may be feeling sad. Staff skilfully support pupils who need extra help to manage their behaviour. They deal with bullying quickly and make sure that it does not happen again. This means that pupils learn and play in a calm and positive environment. They feel safe in school. Pupils love coming to school. Staff have fostered a real sense of community. Parents value the social activities in school, including joining their children for lunch and 'book and biscuit' sessions. Pupils enjoy the activities outside school such as music events, sports competitions and residential trips.
