What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 3 December 2024
Pupils enjoy attending this warm and welcoming school. The school promotes pupils' well- being and personal development alongside their academic achievements. Pupils understand the importance of the school's values. These values include kindness, teamwork, honesty, independence and a love of learning. Pupils are well prepared for their next steps. They know that staff have high expectations of them. They rise to these expectations and support their friends to do the same. There are high expectations of behaviour. Pupils know how they should behave and adhere to the school's rules. Pupils move around the school sensibly. They listen carefully to other peoples' ideas and develop both independence and teamwork skills as they move through the school. Parents and carers are happy with the education the school provides for their children. The school prepares pupils well for life in modern Britain. For example, pupils understand how democracy is an important way of allowing people to contribute to decisions. Pupils are safe and are well supported by adults. However, a significant number of pupils are persistently absent. This means that too many pupils miss vital learning in school.
What the school should improve
- A small number of pupils struggle to join in during phonics lessons. They are not confident with the sounds that are being taught. As a result, they do not learn as well as they should. The school should ensure that the sounds pupils are taught are well matched to the needs of all pupils.
- There are too many pupils who are persistently absent. This means some pupils miss important learning. The school should put in place rigorous systems to ensure that more pupils attend school regularly.
