What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 3 December 2024
Pupils at this school flourish in this welcoming, harmonious and happy environment. Children learn from their start in the Nursery Year to be kind and caring towards others. Pupils develop their self-confidence throughout their time at school. They benefit from a curriculum that is ambitious and carefully designed to meet their needs, especially those pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Pupils are very well prepared for their next steps. The school and its inspirational staff motivate pupils to be the very best that they can be. Pupils strive to meet the school's high expectations. They work hard during lessons and their behaviour is exemplary. They make excellent progress through the ambitious curriculum. Pupils, including those with SEND, achieve exceptionally well. Pupils experience a range of opportunities to take on responsibilities in school, including being well-being and eco champions and sports and library leaders. Older pupils are proud to become positive role models and help younger children to learn. Pupils enjoy a wealth of experiences that extend well beyond the academic curriculum. These include residential visits and many trips to local community and cultural settings.
