What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 29 April 2025

Pupils are proud to attend this school. Staff create a safe and happy environment where pupils respect each other. Pupils enjoy taking on roles in school, such as head girl, head boy and school councillors. This helps them to understand how to be responsible and caring leaders of the school. Pupils show positive attitudes in lessons and share their ideas respectfully with each other. In most cases, pupils behave well, but on occasion, there is some low-level disruption, which can affect learning. Nonetheless, staff have high expectations of pupils' achievement. The quality of pupils' work reflects this. Pupils are noticed for their successes. Teachers celebrate pupils' reading in assemblies and award class points for high-quality presentation in books. Pupils consistently uphold the school values of courage, thankfulness and love. Mostly, they are courteous and thoughtful to their peers, which creates a caring ethos around school. Pupils value their teachers being on hand to help with any issues they may have. This fosters kind and nurturing relationships throughout the school. The school provides many wider opportunities for pupils. These include visits to the Steam Museum to develop their understanding of transportation through history. In addition, pupils enjoy art and music clubs.

What the school should improve

  • On occasion, the school's high expectations for pupils' behaviour are not consistently applied. As a result, some pupils' learning is disrupted by the behaviour of others. The school should ensure that its expectations for addressing low-level disruption are fully understood and followed by staff at all times.
