What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 6 June 2023
Pupils are happy and feel safe in this welcoming and inclusive school. Leaders are ambitious for them to learn well. Pupils demonstrate high levels of motivation. They enjoy their lessons and love to discuss their developing knowledge. As a result, most pupils achieve highly across the curriculum. The school's values of 'resilience, kindness, imagination, reflection and respect' underpin daily life. Pupils learn about different cultures, traditions and religions. They are respectful of each other and celebrate difference. Pupils work and play well together. They are keen to help and readily take on responsibilities such as on the elected school council or as 'playground pals'. Pupils enjoy positive relationships with adults and, as one pupil summed up, 'everybody in this school gets their voice heard'. Bullying is not tolerated and leaders act swiftly to address any concerns. Pupils enjoy the wide range of extra-curricular provision such as gardening, French and yoga. They delight in the range of opportunities to participate in competitive sport either in the school's house competitions or against other schools, such as in the recent Hampshire Athletics. Many learn to play a musical instrument such as guitar, keyboard and drums. There is a high level of pupil participation in these wider activities.
What the school should improve
- Some staff are not as confident in their subject knowledge as others. This leads to inconsistencies in how well they implement the curriculum and assess pupils' learning. Leaders need to ensure all staff have subject-specific professional development to improve their expertise.
- There are minor inconsistencies in the way staff support early readers. This means that a small number of pupils do not catch up as quickly as they might. Leaders should ensure that all staff have the knowledge and skills to teach early reading effectively.
- Suspensions are not reducing quickly enough. Leaders need to persevere with their work to ensure behaviour is consistently high quality and lost learning time, for these children, is minimised.
