What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 1 November 2023

Leaders have created a calm and orderly environment in which pupils flourish. Pupils readily take ownership of demonstrating and living out the school values of kindness, focus, creativity, responsibility and collaboration. This can be seen throughout the school. The Grazebrook 'passport' aims to support pupils to develop as active citizens and enhance their understanding of the world around them. Pupils are proud to take part in charity work because they want to improve the lives of their wider community. The curriculum is highly ambitious and broad for all, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Leaders ensure that all pupils are able to fully follow the curriculum. Pupils show real enjoyment and delight in learning new ideas and engaging with different experiences. Pupils achieve highly across the curriculum. Extremely strong outcomes in national assessments help to exemplify the strength of the curriculum and how well it is delivered. There are strong behaviour routines in place at the school. These are lived and understood by all, from early years upwards. Behaviour is a strength. Pupils are kind and courteous. In lessons, pupils' conduct positively supports learning. Pupils said that their own attitudes and those of their peers have a positive impact on their time at school. Pupils are kept safe at this school. Pupils feel safe and all have adults who they know they can talk to about any worries.
