What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 18 June 2024
Pupils enjoy learning and playing together in this school. They take an active role in all aspects of school life and are happy in lessons and at play and lunchtimes. The school has developed outside spaces so that pupils benefit from a variety of physical activities using resources, such as sports areas and climbing apparatus. Pupils make full use of these spaces during play and lunchtimes, as well as enjoying imaginative play together. The school sets high expectations of pupils' achievement, including pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) and other disadvantaged pupils. Staff skilfully teach and support pupils so that these high expectations are realised. Pupils make secure progress through the curriculum and achieve very well. Pupils feel safe in this school. They trust adults to deal with any concerns they may have. Relationships between staff and pupils are highly respectful. Pupils are polite and courteous. The school sets clear and high expectations of pupil conduct. Pupils understand how staff expect them to behave because the school explains this carefully to pupils in assemblies and in lessons. As a result of this, pupils' behaviour is positive in lessons and around the school.
What the school should improve
- In a few subjects, the implementation of the curriculum is currently still being refined. This means that pupils do not yet develop detailed knowledge and skills across some subjects as well as they could. The school should ensure that teaching consistently supports pupils to learn the key knowledge and skills across the curriculum.
