What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 4 October 2023
Pupils are happy here. They enjoy coming to school. Typically, parents and carers described the school as a 'friendly' community. They appreciate leaders' efforts to be visible and stay in contact with families. The school has a broad curriculum. Leaders have high ambitions for all pupils, including pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). They work hard to identify and tackle any potential barriers to learning. Leaders support pupils in their learning, and pupils achieve well. The school rightly prioritises early reading. Pupils enjoy reading, and this underpins the wider curriculum. The school encourages pupils to 'be safe, be respectful, be ready'. Adults promote respectful working relationships. If any bullying occurs, the school takes action to work with pupils. The school reinforces and continually teaches its expectations for pupils' behaviour. As such, typically, behaviour is calm and sensible. Leaders provide meaningful opportunities for pupils to contribute to wider society. For example, pupils talked with pride about the trees planted by the eco-council in the school's grounds. Extra-curricular clubs, such as piano tuition and sports clubs, are well used by pupils. As pupils move up through the years, residential trips aim to help pupils to develop their personal and social skills, including their independence and resilience.
What the school should improve
- Sometimes, curriculum thinking is not equally well developed across all areas of the curriculum to enable pupils to expand and deepen their knowledge to the same extent across all subjects. The school should ensure that the curriculum in all subjects is designed and sequenced so that pupils build and retain key knowledge cumulatively and securely over time.
- Sometimes, teachers' checks on pupils' understanding of subject-specific knowledge are not refined or purposeful. Consequently, teachers do not have a full picture of what pupils know and understand. The school should ensure that staff routinely check pupils' recall of subject-specific knowledge and act swiftly to address any misconceptions.
