What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 5 November 2024
Pupils are happy at this school. Every day, they come into school smiling, greeted by the adults who care for them. Pupils feel safe and ready to learn. All pupils know the school's principles to 'be kind, be inspired and believe'. Pupils have high aspirations to make a difference. Staff listen to pupils' views and help them, for example, raise money for issues they feel strongly about. Pupils behave well. At breaktime, they play happily together. They share equipment and take turns. In lessons, pupils listen carefully to the teacher and quickly settle to tasks. The school has high aspirations for what pupils will learn, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Pupils rise to the challenge of the learning provided. They are keen to succeed and are well prepared for the next stage of their education. Pupils enjoy using the large school grounds, such as the woodland area, to learn about trees and plants. The indoor swimming pool provides pupils with the opportunity to swim regularly. This means that most pupils are competent swimmers by the time they leave the school. Pupils gain a good understanding of how to stay safe around deep water.
What the school should improve
- In some subjects, the school does not ensure that teachers have the subject knowledge they need to identify what pupils already know and can do. As a result, new learning does not always build upon pupils' existing knowledge, and pupils are unable to make links to their prior learning. The school should ensure that all staff have the subject knowledge to deliver the curriculum as intended, building on pupils' learning and deepening their understanding.
