What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 30 January 2024
This is a school at the heart of the local community. There are high aspirations for all who attend. Pupils are nurtured right from nursery. Warm and positive relationships are present. Staff know pupils very well. Pupils' individual needs are well understood. Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are supported particularly well in this inclusive school. Pupils are very safe in school. They have trusted adults with whom to share any worries. Pupils who need additional help to manage their emotions access 'The Nest.' Staff in The Nest, as in other areas of the school, are well trained to support pupils. A range of different activities, such as chess, film club and yoga, enrich the curriculum. Leaders are passionate that pupils' horizons are broadened. Each year group has '5 things to do' to ensure that they have memorable experiences throughout their schooling. Pupils behave well in school. They work and play cooperatively together. Pupils revel in the newly implemented outdoor play and learning initiative. Pupils are very familiar with the school values of 'Ready, Respectful, Safe'. Being respectful to all is at the heart of the school's values. Pupils know they should be kind to all. There are a great number of leadership opportunities for pupils. The Junior Leadership Team dutifully monitors the toilets and corridors. Members enjoy discussing their ideas with school leaders.
What the school should improve
- In some subjects, the content of the curriculum is not sufficiently challenging. This limits some pupils' acquisition of knowledge and understanding in these subjects. The school must ensure that the curriculum content is challenging in all subjects so that pupils develop a deep body of knowledge and skills.
