What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 13 October 2022

College Green is a nurturing, friendly school. It provides an exceptional education for children. Parents and carers hold the school in high regard. Many reported that they choose College Green because it is a 'special place.' Leaders and teachers have high expectations for all children. Learning is carefully matched to the needs and interests of each child, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Children build strong, caring relationships with adults. This ensures that they are kept safe and feel safe. Leaders and staff are highly skilled in helping children to quickly settle in and feel secure, including when they join the school. Children are happy and enjoy exploring independently. Behaviour is exemplary. Children are polite and friendly to adults. The 'behaviour charters', created by staff alongside the children, help children to play and learn happily together. Bullying is extremely rare. Any issues are dealt with swiftly, should they occur. Leaders provide a range of experiences to foster children's excitement about learning. For example, the 'natural thinkers' morning each week enables children to investigate all that learning outside has to offer together with staff and parents.
