What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 5 March 2024

Pupils thrive at this highly inclusive, vibrant school. The school motto, 'learning, growing and praying together', threads through every aspect of school life. This helps to build a strong sense of community. Pupils enjoy coming to school. They know that they are part of the 'Christ the King family'. They feel safe and secure. The school is ambitious for all pupils to do well regardless of background or starting points. These ambitions are realised. Pupils achieve highly, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Pupils with SEND are fully involved in lessons and in the wider life of the school. Pupils know that they are expected to behave in ways that support the school values: compassion, love, respect. They do so. They show a love of learning. This starts with the exciting, ambitious early years curriculum. An exceptionally positive learning atmosphere threads through the school. The provision for pupils' wider development is exemplary. Special features include the fields and forest school, where pupils extend their learning. Pupils enjoy hearing from a range of external visitors. The 'Art Lady' is a firm favourite. They benefit from leadership roles, such as the chaplaincy team. This helps pupils to become responsible, caring citizens.
