What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 22 October 2024

Pupils' needs, and those of the wider school community, are the driving force for all that leaders do. This starts with parental engagement, promoting attendance and ensuring pupils and families have what they need to get the most from what the school has to offer. Leaders expect all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), to achieve well. The broad and balanced curriculum helps pupils to develop their knowledge and understanding across different subjects. Typically, pupils are well prepared for the next stage of their education. The school's values of respect, honesty, responsibility, kindness, self-belief and aspiration underpin everything the school does. Pupils and staff alike know and understand these values. They are realised, and relationships are strong. Pupils are happy and safe and behave sensibly, showing care and consideration for others. There is an appreciation of the importance of being safe, respectful and ready to learn. Pupils are proud of their school. They know they are listened to. There are a wide range of roles available to help build responsibility, including head boy and girl, attendance champions, positions on the eco-council and anti-bullying ambassadors. Elections for these roles provide pupils with an understanding of democracy and help to prepare them for life in modern Britain.

What the school should improve

  • In early years, some of the knowledge and vocabulary that children should secure to prepare them for future learning is not explicitly identified. As a result, children do not fully understand some important concepts, and language, in readiness for their learning at the start of Year 1. The school should ensure that the early years curriculum and vocabulary builds sequentially, with a clear alignment between early years and what comes next.
  • The school's oversight of the impact of interventions for pupils with SEND is not well developed. This means that the school is not clear on what is making the most difference for these pupils. The school should ensure that interventions for pupils with SEND are carefully tracked and evaluated to ensure greater impact.
