What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 13 September 2023
Pupils are happy and safe at this warm, welcoming and inclusive school. Pupils appreciate the care and support they receive from adults. They know they will help with any worries. Parents and carers appreciate the support that their children receive, both at school and at home. The school has high expectations for all pupils, both personally and academically. Pupils learn in a supportive and caring environment. The school gives pupils the emotional and learning support that they need to be happy and successful. Pupils often join the school midway through the academic year. Where extra help is needed, this is quickly identified. Teachers make sure that these pupils get the right support in place, and they achieve well. Pupils behave well around school and in lessons. They have positive attitudes towards their learning. Exploring 'ASK' (attitudes, skills and knowledge) in lessons helps them to stay focused. Pupils listen to their teachers and respond well to instructions. This begins in the early years, where children follow a clear set of routines. Being a 'champion' in school gives pupils the opportunity to lead with purpose. They work on different projects to engage in a positive way with different members of the local community. For example, community champions worked with a university to develop a tree garden.
What the school should improve
- Pupils who are at the early stages of reading do not have enough opportunities to practise their phonics and early reading skills. This means that some pupils do not learn to read fluently as quickly as they should. The school should ensure that these pupils have sufficient opportunities to practise their phonics and read books that are well matched to their phonic knowledge in order to develop their reading skills quickly.
- Some pupils do not attend school often enough. This means that they miss out on important learning. The school should ensure that a more rigorous and effective approach to monitoring attendance is adopted so that pupils' attendance improves and they can access the full curriculum offer.
