What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 22 February 2023

Pupils are extremely proud of their school. Pupils here develop into confident, resilient and independent learners. They demonstrate great strength of character. Staff have high expectations of pupils at all times. Bullying is not tolerated and is dealt with seriously by all staff. Pupils take up many leadership responsibilities across the school. Through democratic processes, pupils are elected as eco-warriors, worship leaders, school council members or heads of school. Pupils' opinions are listened to and form a large part of the school's development plan. The whole school comes together at breaktimes and shares the playground sensibly. Older pupils enjoy playing with the children in Reception. They model the school's very high expectations and values to them. All pupils enjoy learning outside in the woodland area. In liaison with pupils, leaders have introduced 'Worldly Wednesdays', an opportunity to hear about cultures and beliefs from around the world. This encourages pupils to treat others with respect and make sure no one is left out. The personal support that pupils receive here is very strong. All pupils have at least one adult they can talk to if they have worries or concerns. Pupils are safe and are taught to keep safe when online.

What the school should improve

  • Recently, leaders have made changes to the curriculum in some subjects. Where the curriculum is at the earlier stages of implementation, leaders must systematically review its impact and ensure that the curriculum leads to the best possible outcomes for all pupils.
