What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 13 July 2022

Pupils enjoy coming to this thriving and inclusive school, which is at the heart of its community. Pupils value their education. The school motto 'Believe You Can' underpins pupils' aspirations. Pupils say that this helps them to believe in themselves and to do their very best. Leaders have high expectations for pupils' behaviour. Pupils are polite and courteous. They behave well in lessons and around the school. Pupils talk positively about how the school's values help them to show respect and be responsible. Pupils have positive relationships with staff. They know that adults are there to help them and to keep them safe. Pupils say that bullying is rare, and that if it were to happen they are confident that adults will deal with it quickly. Pupils are enthusiastic about the wide range of clubs on offer to them, such as multisports and yoga. They value their roles on the school council and the fundraising work they do for local charities. Parents and carers are overwhelmingly positive about the school. One parent said, 'The school offers a safe and nurturing environment with kind and friendly staff and a great community feel.'

What the school should improve

  • Assessment is not used well enough by some teachers to check that pupils have remembered the knowledge they have been taught. As a result, some pupils are not able to recall what they have learned. Leaders should ensure that assessment is used effectively to check what pupils know and remember across all subjects.
  • In a few subjects, teachers are less secure in their subject knowledge. As a result, the curriculum is not delivered effectively. This slows pupils' learning. Leaders should ensure that teachers receive appropriate support to strengthen their subject knowledge further.
