What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 12 July 2023
Pupils at this school are kind, polite and hard-working. In lessons they listen to their teachers and to each other. Pupils are cooperative and respectful. They know that unkind language is not acceptable. Pupils feel very safe here. They like the opportunities that they have to talk about how they are feeling, and they know they can speak to different adults, including a school counsellor, if they have any worries. Pupils study a carefully thought-out curriculum. Teachers make sure that pupils learn about interesting and current topics. For example, pupils enjoy debating the introduction of the London ultra-low emissions zone. The curriculum is enriched by a variety of visits to places of interest including Colchester Castle and the Natural History Museum. Pupils attend a wide range of clubs and activities that help them develop new interests. This includes several sporting activities as well as choir, art club and a popular recorder group. Leaders and teachers know their pupils very well. Leaders are ambitious for all pupils, including those pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). As a result of this ambition, pupils achieve well. Parents and carers appreciate the access they have to teachers and leaders.
What the school should improve
- Sometimes teachers do not select learning activities that best support pupils to progress through the curriculum as intended. This means that sometimes pupils lose focus in lessons and develop gaps in their knowledge. Leaders should ensure that teachers select activities that more consistently help pupils to learn the intended curriculum so that they know and understand more of the subject content.
- Some elements of the wider personal development programme have been through considerable change, and currently not all topics are revisited regularly as pupils get older. Leaders should ensure that their revised programme is carefully considered so that pupils are provided with important life skills and information about healthy relationships in a timely and age-appropriate way.
