What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 26 November 2024

This is an exceptional school where pupils thrive as learners. The school has the highest ambition for pupils to develop as confident and capable young people. This starts in the early years. Leaders have developed a curriculum that is relevant and well structured. Teachers deliver that curriculum with care and skill. Pupils, including disadvantaged pupils, make strong progress through the curriculum and achieve high outcomes as a result. Behaviour is exceptionally well managed at the school. This is the result of the trusting relationships that are developed by staff who know their pupils well and understand their learning needs. Low-level disruption and bullying are rare. They are swiftly resolved by staff if they do occur. The school provides a range of enrichment activities to widen pupils' experiences. The arts are at the core of this offer. Pupils are exceptionally well supported to develop their knowledge of life beyond school and their self-confidence as a result. Pupils are successfully prepared for their next steps at secondary school. By the end of Year 6, they have a rich and well-developed body of knowledge in a range of areas, especially reading, writing and mathematics.
