What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 17 October 2023

Pupils are proud to attend this school. Leaders have the highest aspirations for what pupils can achieve. All pupils develop their talents and interests through a wide range of enrichment activities. Music is a particular highlight. Pupils attend weekly string instrument lessons from Year 2. Many pupils take part in regular orchestral and choral performances. Pupils' exceptional behaviour and attitudes make the school a pleasant and harmonious place to be. The youngest pupils in the school quickly develop the habits that lead to excellent behaviour. Older pupils can be relied on to set an example to younger pupils. They take on a range of leadership responsibilities, including in the junior leadership team and as sports ambassadors and librarians. The curriculum is highly ambitious. Pupils routinely study content that is above what might be expected of them. The school's curriculum includes Latin, philosophy and chess. The trust provides a programme of professional development training for all staff. As a result, staff are experts in the subjects they teach. Leaders have equally high expectations of all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). All pupils flourish in this nurturing school community.
