What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 20 February 2024
Pupils identify kindness as one of the main characteristics of this school. Pupils know staff want the very best for them and say they can rely on each other too. Pupils of all ages play together and know each other well. Because of this, pupils feel happy and safe at school. Pupils have very positive attitudes to learning. They learn in calm and purposeful lessons. Because staff know them so well, they benefit from personal help and support. Pupils enjoy working together. One pupil commented, 'I learn so much at school that it seems boring at home!'. Pupils are active members of the school community. The school council includes pupils of all ages. The council, alongside eco-warriors and playground pals, keenly supports the school community. Pupils and families take part in poetry readings and make good use of the school holiday community library. Pupils benefit from a range of additional opportunities. They enjoy different clubs, including sports and art activities. Leaders use the school's small size as an advantage when helping to develop pupils' shared experiences. A recent whole- school trip to the pantomime was popular and memorable. Pupils liked being there together, and they enjoyed the show and the ice cream.
What the school should improve
- In a small number of subjects, the curriculum is not yet as precisely considered as it is in others. This means that learning does not always build sequentially, which can lead to pupils having gaps in their knowledge. The school should continue to fully implement curriculum developments and to provide staff with the required training and support to teach each subject as well as possible.
