What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 22 October 2024
Pupils thrive at this warm and welcoming school. School and trust leaders are determined to ensure that every pupil succeeds. The school's curriculum develops pupils' intellectual curiosity and enhances their character. Learning is carefully considered and sequenced to help pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), deepen their knowledge and understanding. Work produced is of high quality across most subjects and pupils are typically very well prepared for the next stage of their education. The school's expert knowledge of the community underpins the personal development programme. For example, the school runs an additional online safety programme alongside the personal, social and health education (PSHE) curriculum. Pupils are well prepared for life beyond the classroom. Pupils love coming to school, as a result attendance is high. As one parent summarised, 'My child starts school with a smile on his face and leaves with an even bigger one.' Pupils' behaviour is exemplary. They show high levels of respect for others. Pupils are kind and empathetic. They learn to look after their physical and mental health. Pupils feel safe and know adults are there to help if they have any concerns.
What the school should improve
- The approach to the teaching of writing is not consistent across the school. This means that pupils have varying experiences because the impact of recent changes on handwriting, spelling and grammar are not consistent across pupils' written work. The school should continue to evaluate the impact and consistency of its work to ensure that pupils' writing continues to improve.
