What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 5 November 2024
Pupils are happy to attend this warm and nurturing school. They have strong relationships with staff and they feel well supported. Pupils are keen to please. They have positive attitudes towards school. Adults ensure that pupils feel safe. Pupils conduct themselves positively around school. For example, children in the early years learn to cooperate well with each other. At breaktimes, pupils are polite and kind towards one another, reflecting the school's values. The school has set high expectations for pupils' learning, including for those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). This is evident in reading, writing and mathematics, where pupils attain well. However, the school has not ensured that pupils remember their learning well enough in subjects other than English and mathematics. Pupils enjoy a wealth of clubs on offer such as chess, cheerleading and creative writing. These activities stretch their talents and interests and provide pupils with new experiences. Pupils appreciate the level of responsibility that comes with caring for the animals in the school's farm. They also have other roles in school, such as play leaders or school councillors, which help to develop their confidence and self-esteem.
What the school should improve
- Misconceptions in pupils' learning are often not addressed effectively enough. This means that pupils do not understand some key aspects of the intended curriculum and, therefore, have insecure foundations for some of their future learning. The school should ensure that teachers are supported to address misconceptions at an earlier stage so that pupils' understanding of these subjects is more secure.
- In subjects other than English and mathematics, pupils do not remember their learning well enough. This is because they have insufficient opportunities to recall and reinforce their previous learning. The school should ensure that the curriculum content is revisited to enable pupils to remember the most important learning.
