What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 10 April 2024
Pupils flourish at this happy and friendly school. Teachers are aspirational for pupils' achievement. They equip pupils with highly effective learning behaviours that help them to succeed in lessons. Pupils take great pride in their education and enjoy sharing their vast knowledge with others. The school has created a climate for learning that enables pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), to excel in all that they do. Pupils behave impeccably. They treat each other with unwavering kindness and respect. Pupils seize every opportunity to learn something new. For example, they relish the exciting opportunities that are on offer each Friday, such as outdoor learning, cooking and lessons in languages and music. These experiences inspire pupils to develop new talents and interests. Pupils have a deep appreciation of, and respect for, the many differences that exist between people. They make a positive contribution to the life of the school. For example, the pupil communication group has worked with staff to introduce exciting playtime activities. Older pupils avidly take on the roles of sports and play leaders, organising games and activities for pupils to enjoy at lunchtime. These opportunities build a strong sense of common purpose throughout the school.
