What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 23 January 2024

This is a welcoming school where pupils thrive. Leaders are ambitious for all pupils, including pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Caring staff help to build respectful relationships. This ensures that pupils enjoy coming to school. Children in early years squeal with excitement as they enter school in the morning. They quickly join in the well-designed activities. Older pupils are prepared for future learning due to the support and opportunities they are offered. Pupils' personal development is exceptional. The school offers pupils a rich set of experiences. They include visits to the theatre, participating in sports competitions and playing musical instruments with Royal Northern Sinfonia. There are a wide range of clubs to help develop pupils' talents. For example, stained glass art and a team ball game inspired by fantasy fiction. Pupils enjoy being leaders, such as head boy or girl. Pupils behave well in lessons and at break times. This is because staff are fair. They support pupils with their behaviour. Staff have expert knowledge of behaviour strategies and calming techniques. They help pupils to learn about strong emotions and how to deal with them. Pupils are resilient. They remember the consequences for not behaving as expected. This helps pupils to behave well most of the time.

What the school should improve

  • In mathematics, some pupils do not remember the vocabulary that they have been taught. This makes it difficult to explain more complex concepts. The school should ensure that all pupils develop their knowledge and understanding of vocabulary and to check that pupils remember vocabulary well.
  • Despite the school's best efforts so far, some pupils do not attend school often enough. These pupils miss out on important learning. The school should continue to work with pupils and their families to improve pupils' attendance so that they can benefit from the good quality education that is provided.
