What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 4 February 2025
Pupils feel safe in, and enjoy attending, this highly inclusive school. Relationships between adults, pupils and their families are warm. This helps make the school a happy place. Children settle into the early years very quickly. As they move through the school, pupils learn a broad and balanced curriculum. They achieve well, particularly in the core subjects of English and mathematics. The pastoral support provided is a strength. The school ensures that pupils' well-being comes first. Pupils know that adults will listen to them if they ever feel worried. If any pupil needs some more specific support, this is provided by trained adults. Regular well- being mornings involve parents and carers in this offer, too. Behaviour around school is typically positive. Pupils are enthusiastic learners in the classroom. The playground is a hive of activity. Many pupils play games together happily, while pupils who prefer quiet time have this opportunity, too. If any pupil feels left out, members of the 'kindness crew' are on hand to support them to find a friend. Pupils benefit from the chance to develop their wider talents and interests through clubs such as French, yoga and football. School councillors take on leadership roles. They enjoy having an active voice in school life.
What the school should improve
- Some subject curriculum thinking is not yet fully embedded. In these subjects, pupils do not always connect and develop a depth of knowledge over time. The school should further support subject leaders to consider and refine their curriculum thinking so that pupils consistently learn and remember the intended knowledge across all curriculum subjects.
