What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 11 February 2025

Leaders' high expectations are evident at every stage of pupils' journey in the school. These expectations consistently translate into pupils' achievements. Pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), achieve exceptionally well. The school's expectations for academic achievement are matched by how they want pupils to behave. The school deliberately and skilfully teaches pupils how to behave. 'Wonderful walking' and 'marvellous manners' from pupils are commonplace. Teaching of these clear behaviour expectations begins in the early years. Children in the early years learn to be motivated and enthusiastic about school life. Pupils love their learning. They work with independence and focus. Pupils are rightly proud of their learning in different subjects. The school teaches pupils to be highly respectful and considerate of others. Pupils develop an extremely clear moral compass. They have a clear understanding and awareness of important issues, such as prejudice and discrimination. Pupils are respectful of the similarities and differences between groups in society. Staff ensure that pupils experience an environment of consistency and care. Over time, pupils develop a deep well of knowledge, skills and values that leave them very well prepared for the next stage of their education.
