What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 7 January 2025
Pupils are at the heart of every decision made at this caring, compassionate and ambitious school. Everyone in the school upholds the clear expectations to be ready, respectful and safe. Pupils proudly rise to meet these high aspirations. Staff provide exceptional pastoral care for pupils who need extra help with their emotions. Mental health and well-being are central to the school's ethos. Pupils thrive, with mindfulness and therapeutic interventions to help them through any tricky times. As a result, behaviour is positive, from the classroom to the playground. Achievements have increased each year following the pandemic. By the end of Year 6, pupils are strongly prepared for secondary school as a result of high-quality education and impressive personal development. Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) progress through the curriculum and achieve well. Strong provision for disadvantaged pupils ensures equal opportunities for all to succeed. A wide extra-curricular offer ensures something for everyone. Drama, music, choir and sporting opportunities celebrate and nurture pupils' interests and talents. Educational trips and residential activity breaks offer valuable enrichment. The school provides excellent support for families, exemplified by 'Breakfast In The Mess' to help children into school and 'Troopers' to support service families, particularly during deployment.
What the school should improve
- In some subjects, the feedback given to pupils does not sharply address how they can improve their work. As a result, some pupils do not achieve as highly as they could across the whole curriculum. The school should ensure that teachers and staff provide precise feedback to pupils that helps them to make improvements to their work and achieve highly across every subject.
