What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 17 April 2024
Pupils interact respectfully and in a friendly way with each other here. Leaders have high expectations for all pupils. The school has designed a broad and balanced curriculum that is ambitious for all the pupils in the school, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Pupils enjoy school and they are enthusiastic to learn. They are safe here. Leaders encourage pupils to build strong relationships with their peers and resolve conflict when it occurs. In the early years, children develop their independence and behave sensibly. In addition to teaching knowledge that pupils need for their next steps, leaders also foster pupils' creativity, and their physical and emotional well-being. This is achieved, in part, through the leadership opportunities available to pupils. For example, learning champions contribute towards learning in class, well-being ambassadors support pupils' mental health and eco-warriors help the school community to take care of the environment. The school also organises educational visits to enhance pupils' learning. For example, in Year 2 pupils went to a park to apply their map reading and compass skills in geography. In Years 5 and 6, pupils attended a spoken word workshop to develop poetry skills and enhance their oracy. Pupils in Year 6 visited Kew Gardens to deepen their understanding of different plant types.
What the school should improve
- Where curriculum improvements are new, sometimes work selected for pupils to do does not support pupils to learn and remember key knowledge and skills securely in the long term. This means that, occasionally, pupils cannot remember key knowledge that they have been taught and they do not build curriculum knowledge as securely. The school should ensure that teaching checks that all pupils know and remember key learning and that work routinely supports pupils to learn and understand the curriculum securely.
