What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 8 October 2024
Central to the school are the values of 'care, believe, succeed'. These guide pupils successfully in their actions. These values underpin the school's ambition for all pupils to succeed and pupils do achieve well. Pupils care about one another. They understand and respect each other's differences. Pupils recognise that, 'We are all unique in our own way.' Pupils learn about how they should care for others. They raise money for local charities. The school participates in community life such as the May Day festival. These activities create a sense of community responsibility. Pupils are happy in school. They appreciate the wide range of opportunities to explore their talents and interests. The school encourages pupils to share their own talents with others. For instance, pupils run their own magic and singing clubs. The school is a calm place where pupils get on well together. Pupils say they know who to go to if they are worried. The recent introduction of class 'worry monsters' helps pupils share their concerns. They know these concerns will be dealt with. Pupils say they feel safe.
What the school should improve
- In a few instances, learning activities do not always support the needs of some pupils with SEND. Adaptations to learning activities do not always suit their needs. This means that a few of these pupils do not do as well as they could. The school should ensure that learning is adapted to suit all pupils' needs and that all support is precise, timely and consistently applied.
- The new behaviour policy has been introduced, but is not always applied consistently. This means that, on a few occasions, pupils do not respond quickly enough to instructions and low-level disruption can occur. The school should ensure that this policy is being applied by all staff consistently.
- The knowledge that pupils need to know and remember about some religions and cultures is not shared well enough. As a result, pupils do not yet have a sound understanding of different faiths and cultures. The school should review the curriculum to create more opportunities for pupils to understand other religions and cultures so that they have a greater understanding of multicultural Britain.
