What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 28 November 2023
Pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), thrive at this wonderful school. They live up to the school's high expectations and excel in their learning and wider development. Pupils achieve highly across the curriculum. They feel safe at the school because of staff's expert support. Pupils learn to treat other people how they want to be treated themselves. They develop an exceptional understanding of the causes and impact of world issues, such as religious and racial conflict. Pupils' understanding does not happen by chance. It is a direct result of the school's innovative curriculum thinking. Pupils are calm and show high levels of self control, such as when they move along the corridors. In classrooms too, pupils' behaviour is of a high standard. Pupils widen their knowledge from the rich diet of extra opportunities that the school provides. For example, the school helps as many pupils as possible to appreciate French culture and language, including by spending time at a 16th-century French chateau. Pupils also learn to ski in the mountains of north-west Italy. Pupils' strength of character and their achievements are celebrated in many original ways by the school. For instance, the governing body awards an annual 'governor cup' to the Year 6 pupil most nominated by the staff team for their exceptional conduct.
