What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 1 November 2023

Pupils are proud to attend this inclusive and well-run school. Pupils are taught by committed and passionate teachers. They receive help from knowledgeable support staff. This is true for all pupils, including children in the early years, pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) and pupils accessing the 'My Space' on-site provision. Lessons are carefully planned. As a result, pupils find learning interesting, stimulating and fun. Pupils achieve highly. They remember much of what they have been taught. Their performance in tests and assessments is strong. Pupils' behaviour is exceptional. Across all classes, and throughout school, pupils follow the well-embedded expectations of behaviour. Bullying is rare and pupils say that adults sort out issues when they arise. Pupils feel safe at school. They enjoy coming to school and most pupils attend regularly. Children in the Nursery and Reception classes benefit from provision of an exceptional quality. The most is made of every opportunity to support children in these classes.

What the school should improve

• Leaders have made several improvements to aspects of the school's curriculum. These changes are supporting pupils to improve the knowledge and skills they develop across subjects. Some of these changes now need time to embed to ensure pupils achieve as well as they can. Leaders should continue to offer effective support to all staff during the implementation and consolidation of the recent changes to the curriculum.
