What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 1 July 2025
Pupils at Cardinal Road are kind. Manners are emphasised by staff consistently. Pupils rise to the school's high expectations and behave excellently. Pupils understand how to raise any concerns they may have about behaviour and bullying, if this does occur. Pupils are rightly proud of their school and keen to invite others into their learning and play. Pupils know how to stay safe, including in school and out in the local community. They know who their trusted adults are. As part of the school's 'curriculum drivers', pupils benefit from a rich and wide set of experiences. They contribute to their local area, for example, through the harvest festival. Pupils have opportunities to eat together and celebrate special occasions, such as New Year's Eve by singing Auld Lang Syne, as well as feeding meerkats, or having visits from the fire brigade. These opportunities provide new experiences, seek to celebrate commonalities and enrich pupils' understanding of the wider world. Leaders and governors are incredibly aspirational for pupils. They work with families to support pupils to succeed for as long as they are in the school. As a result, pupils achieve well across the different areas of learning in early years and subjects in the national curriculum.
