What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 5 July 2022

Pupils thrive in this friendly, welcoming, small school. Staff know pupils well and care about them. This helps pupils to feel safe. There is a strong family feel. Pupils are enthusiastic, eager to learn, polite and well mannered. Pupils behave very well in lessons and at social times. Pupils do not see bullying as an issue. They express views such as, 'We've not heard of any of that here.' They are confident that staff quickly deal with any such issues or worries. Pupils enjoy opportunities to join clubs such as the Spanish or cookery club. As part of the 'Glow Team', they also take on responsibilities as school council or eco-team members. Pupils are proud of their school and the way they work and play together. Pupils in Year 6 enjoy being 'buddies' to children in Reception. They enjoy working together at the start of the year to paint a stone placed around the Peace Tree, 'It means we are part of the school for ever.' Leaders have high expectations and are determined for all pupils to reach their full potential. Parents think highly of the school, leaders and staff. They value the care, education and nurture that their children receive.

What the school should improve

  • In some subjects, the essential subject knowledge is not set out within the topic plans as clearly as it could be. This limits pupils' understanding of subjects as individual disciplines. Leaders should ensure that the key knowledge and skills pupils are expected to know and understand are set out clearly in all subjects.
