What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 20 September 2023

This is a safe and happy school where pupils behave very well in lessons and during playtimes. Many pupils say how much they enjoy school. One pupil, echoing the views of others, said, 'Teachers are kind and they help me.' No pupils reported any concerns about bullying. Pupils value the rewards they can earn for kindness and good behaviour, for example having lunch at the 'top table', where they use China crockery. The school has an ambitious curriculum. Its high expectations for pupils' learning are mostly realised. The children in Nursery and Reception get off to a great start, learning together, sharing toys and developing their communication skills. Older pupils listen well and discuss their ideas in lessons. Many pupils take on responsibilities, such as helping to look after the school's chickens. They are serious about leadership roles in the school. For example, pupils must fill out an application form to become class ambassadors. The mayor appoints successful applicants at a special assembly, awarding them their badge.

What the school should improve

  • On occasion, teaching does not implement the intended curriculum securely, including for pupils with SEND. As a result, some pupils have gaps in their knowledge. The school needs to ensure that all staff have the necessary expertise to address gaps in pupils' knowledge so that all pupils benefit from effective teaching.
