What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 8 February 2023

Pupils enjoy coming to this inclusive and welcoming school. They understand how the school's values of aspiration, dignity, wisdom and community help them to be kind and understanding of others. Pupils of all ages learn well together. They are well looked after and feel safe. Pupils appreciate all that staff do for them. Many parents share this view. They speak positively about the school's curriculum and the role the school plays in the local community. Staff have high expectations of what all pupils can achieve. Pupils behave positively in lessons and around the school. As a result, the environment is calm and orderly. Pupils know the difference between bullying and falling out with friends. They say that bullying is rare. If it happens, pupils are confident that adults would deal with it quickly. Pupils are proud of their roles as school councillors. They enjoy taking part in a range of clubs and wider opportunities, such as sports, music, languages and trips linked to the curriculum.

What the school should improve

  • In a few subjects, teachers' checks on what pupils know and understand are still developing. As a result, subject leaders do not have a clear understanding of how well pupils are learning the curriculum. Leaders should check what pupils know and remember in their subjects and use this information to inform future learning.
