What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 11 October 2023

Enfield Academy of New Waltham is a friendly and welcoming community. Pupils enjoy attending and feel safe in school. Pupils know that adults will help them if they are worried about something. In recent years, the number of pupils attending the school has increased. The school has managed this change well. It has remained focused on maintaining a high-quality education for all pupils. The school has high expectations of all pupils. It promotes the qualities of ambition, resilience and collaboration in its development of pupils. Pupils recognise how these qualities benefit their learning and will help them when they are older. Pupils behave well. They display positive attitudes to learning. Strong relationships between staff and pupils are seen across the school. Staff skilfully support pupils whose behaviour does not meet the school's expectations. Pupils enjoy the opportunity to earn rewards. They recognise the importance of consistently demonstrating positive behaviour and being a good role model to others. Pupils aspire to be nominated to be an 'Enfield Emerald'. They are proud to wear their green jumpers that acknowledge this award. This successfully promotes the behaviours that are expected to be seen.

What the school should improve

  • Strategies used by staff to support individual pupils to read are not consistent. This prevents some pupils from using and applying their phonics knowledge with accuracy. The school should ensure that staff use consistent strategies to support pupils to learn to read.
  • The school has not defined how it will measure the impact of its actions to improve further. It is difficult for leaders, including those with responsibility for governance, to refine improvement strategies based on informed evaluations. The school should identify what they will check to ensure that actions to improve the school are having the intended impact.
