What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 11 March 2025
As soon as they start school, pupils learn what it means to be part of an inclusive community. Pupils are confident and proud members of their school. They are enthusiastic about learning and enjoy socialising and playing with their friends. They learn how to stay safe, both online and in the community. Pupils behave well. They learn a range of strategies that help them to manage their emotions. Pupils learn an ambitious and broad curriculum. They enjoy using and applying the technical language and vocabulary they learn as part of their learning. Pupils relish the challenges that teachers set for them. When they learn new concepts, pupils make links to the things they have learned previously. This helps them to build up their knowledge well. Skilful adaptations enable all pupils to achieve well overall. Pupils know what makes them special and unique. They treat each other with kindness and respect. In class, pupils share, collaborate, focus and listen. Pupils learn how to be resilient. Pupils become increasingly independent and take responsibility for their learning. They know that if there is a problem, there is always an adult they can talk to.
What the school should improve
- In a few foundation subjects, staff's expectations of what pupils can achieve are variable. This sometimes leads to inconsistencies in how well pupils learn and affects the quality of pupils' written work. The school should ensure that staff's expectations are consistently high and that pupils produce work of a high quality and learn as well as they can across the full range of subjects.
