What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 28 March 2023
Leaders have a strong focus on treating all fairly and equally and developing pupils who have a range of interests and a variety of experiences. They have developed a curriculum that is broad and balanced. Leaders are ambitious for all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). They have developed an exciting curriculum that is engaging for all pupils. Pupils are safe and happy. They are polite and show high levels of respect for each other. Working relationships between staff and pupils are positive. Pupils know that bullying is not tolerated. Staff respond to any rare incidents of bullying swiftly and effectively. Pupils have access to an exceptionally wide range of experiences and opportunities beyond the academic curriculum. For example, pupils have attended a variety of trips abroad, including history trips to Berlin and Russia, and regular trips to the theatre and art exhibitions. Pupils in the primary phase have the opportunity to attend residential trips in numerous year groups. Pupils' participation in extra- curricular activities is extremely high. Through leaders' careful planning, visits link closely to pupils' learning, particularly in the primary phase.
What the school should improve
- On occasion, teaching does not identify and clarify pupils' misunderstandings. This means that sometimes pupils do not learn from mistakes they make, and errors can persist in work. Leaders should develop the expertise of all teachers to address any gaps in pupils' understanding so that they are fully prepared for future content.
