What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 5 December 2023
Pupils are proud of their school. They enjoy being part of a warm, welcoming community. Pupils thrive in an environment where happiness permeates the school. Older pupils who are peer mediators look out for and help younger pupils. Pupils know there is always someone to help them if they have worries about anything. Pupils enjoy learning and want to share their achievements. They engage in activities with enthusiasm. They strive to meet the high expectations that their teachers have for them. As a result, the majority of pupils work hard. In many cases, pupils produce work of high quality. Pupils enjoy how visitors to the school and the trips they experience bring their learning to life. Consequently, many pupils achieve well. The majority of pupils behave impeccably. Around the school they move purposefully and safely. In social times pupils play well together and are considerate of each other. Pupils' learning is rarely disrupted. In the few occasions where pupils' behaviour interrupts lessons, teachers are quick to intervene.
What the school should improve
- Teachers' use of assessment is not always precise. This means that in some cases teachers are unaware that pupils are not ready to move on, which leads to pupils' learning not being as secure as it needs to be. The school should ensure that teachers are trained to use the most effective methods of assessment to determine if all pupils are ready to move on with their learning.
- Teachers do not have the opportunity to fully consider how different pedagogical approaches should be adapted for different subjects. This means that at times teachers do not adapt their teaching to maximise learning opportunities for pupils. The school should ensure that subject specialists are able to work with staff to ensure that they know how best to use pedagogical approaches within specific subject areas.
