What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 2 March 2022
Pupils are happy to come to school and are kept safe. They like the kind and friendly atmosphere this school offers. Leaders know every pupil and family well. They make sure that all feel included and welcome. Parents and carers like how the school provides a caring community. Teachers set clear routines and expectations for all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Pupils behave well and are considerate towards each other. Staff provide time for pupils to reflect on how they are feeling and how this might affect their actions and words. This encourages pupils to take increasing responsibility for how they behave. Bullying is rare and dealt with promptly. Pupils know that there are adults who will help them solve any concerns or worries. Leaders and staff have high aspirations for pupils' learning and want them to achieve well. In most subjects, the planned programme of learning is ambitious, and pupils develop secure knowledge and understanding. They are interested in their learning and work hard. Leaders and staff provide a range of activities and experiences to support pupils' wider development and well-being. Pupils' opinions on school life are listened to and valued. They appreciate the many opportunities they have to join clubs or go on visits.
What the school should improve
- In a few subjects, some of leaders' curriculum thinking has not confirmed exactly what knowledge pupils need to know and remember. Where this is the case, staff lack clarity about the knowledge that needs to be emphasised and assessed. Leaders should strengthen their existing work on curriculum thinking. They should ensure that they make explicit which knowledge pupils need to learn and remember, and how they expect teachers to assess this knowledge. Leaders and staff should use this information to support pupils to build successfully on what they have previously learned.
