What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 11 June 2024
Pupils are thriving at this friendly and inclusive school. Staff recognise that pupils have different multi-cultural backgrounds. Some pupils also have parents in the armed forces. Time is taken to consider the different needs of pupils and offer bespoke support to help them settle quickly into school life. The school is committed to ensuring everyone has a secure sense of community and belonging. Pupils feel confident to be themselves in the school's nurturing atmosphere. Pupils are proud and happy to be a part of their special school community. They feel safe and are keen to learn and achieve well. The school's 'Zero Hero' approach to behaviour ensures that pupils make a positive contribution to the calm environment of the school. They are polite and well-mannered. Pupils value the recognition they receive through celebration assemblies. Rewards are highly appreciated and include invitations to the headteacher's 'tea party' and 'wow' messages. Pupils are very enthusiastic about the vast array of high-quality enrichment activities on offer. There are several leadership roles to help support their character development. These include wellbeing and subject ambassadors, play leaders and being members of the school council. Pupils are supported to be articulate, confident and to share their thoughts and opinions.
What the school should improve
- In some subjects, teachers do not consistently use appropriate checks to see if pupils are secure in their knowledge before moving on to new learning. As a result, some lesson activities are not always adapted carefully enough to help pupils achieve as highly as they can. The school should continue to ensure that pupils' understanding is checked so that any gaps in understanding can be quickly identified and addressed.
