What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 26 September 2023
The atmosphere in school is supportive, friendly and welcoming of all. In the words of several parents and carers, 'The staff go above and beyond to help the pupils here.' As the school vision states, pupils are indeed ready, respectful and safe. They arrive happily and settle quickly to their work. They love learning and always show positive attitudes towards everything they are asked to do. Pupils achieve well and are proud and excited to talk about their learning. They benefit from the tasks that teachers provide. These are purposeful and well designed to help pupils learn and remember what they are taught. Whether in class, in the innovative virtual reality suite or on the exciting lunchtime playground, pupils behave well and treat one another kindly. This is because they learn a great deal about how to behave, mutual respect and equality. There are clear rules and high expectations of everyone. On the rare occasions when behaviour falls short of expectations, school staff are highly skilled at helping pupils to make amends. Pupils trust staff to sort out any issues quickly, and they do so.
What the school should improve
- In a small number of subjects, the school has not fully implemented curriculum improvements as effectively as in other subjects. This means that pupils do not retain as much knowledge and understanding as they could. The school should continue to implement and review these subjects so that they become as embedded and effective as those subjects which are current strengths of the school.
