What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 22 May 2024

Staff at Fullwood have consistently high expectations of what pupils can achieve. They are committed to the school's focus on 'enabling every child to achieve their best'. Pupils enjoy coming to school and are kept safe. Relationships are warm and nurturing. Pupils behave exceptionally well. They are respectful and polite to each other. Staff, parents, and pupils are rightly proud to be part of this school community. The school's curriculum is ambitious for all pupils, including those with special educational needs and or disabilities (SEND). Pupils have highly positive attitudes towards their education. This begins in early years where children cooperate well with each other and are eager to join in. Across the curriculum, pupils take great pride in their work and achieve highly, including in national assessments. The school provides an extensive range of activities to enrich pupils' experience. For example, 'Wider Opportunity Wednesdays' provide a varied and stimulating range of experiences, such as learning about developments in science, engineering and technology. Pupils relish taking up the responsibilities they are offered. These include roles as learning advisors, bookworms, prefects, and school councillors. Older pupils are exemplary role models for younger pupils. The school ensures that all pupils can participate actively in the life of the school, including those with SEND.
