What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 10 July 2024

Pupils are happy and safe at this warm and welcoming school. The school is ambitious for all pupils. It has made many improvements to the curriculum, to deepen pupils' knowledge. Pupils enjoy learning the subjects that they are taught. They achieve well. This is an inclusive school. Recent improvements in the provision for pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) ensure they are supported well. Strong pastoral support for all pupils' social and emotional well-being enables pupils to thrive. Pupils are sensitive to the needs of others and understand that people are all different. They respect that some of their friends might have different learning requirements. The 'Friskney Five' school values of love, hope, respect, trust, and kindness are proudly displayed. Pupils know and live out these values. They are good friends to each other. Pupils welcome leadership roles, such as playground leaders. They organise popular games at lunchtime for everyone to enjoy. Pupils flourish from the choice of well-attended clubs on offer. For example, engineering club. They develop new interests through these. The school encourages pupils to recognise and celebrate their own unique gifts and talents. Pupils are confident to talk about their individual achievements in the arts or sports.

What the school should improve

  • Some curriculum subjects are new and embedding. Sometimes, there is not enough opportunity for pupils to revisit important knowledge in these subjects. As a result, they do not remember some of the knowledge they have previously been taught. The school should continue to embed the new curriculum and ensure that pupils are supported well with opportunities to recall and remember all the content they are taught so that new learning builds effectively over time.
  • The school has not ensured that pupils' written presentation of what they have learned is done well. Pupils' communication of what they understand is hindered by poor handwriting, presentation and recording in books. The school should ensure that pupils are able to communicate their understanding well in all written forms.
