What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 14 November 2023
Pupils enjoy coming to school. They attend well and arrive each day on time, ready to learn. Their attitudes to learning are positive and they behave impeccably well. This means the school is consistently calm. Pupils say bullying is rare and that school helps them to make friends. Staff make sure pupils are safe at school. Leaders are ambitious for all pupils. The curriculum is broad with a wide range of subjects. The high focus on learning to read, write and communicate helps to prepare pupils well for their next step. Pupils who are in need of help get the additional support they need. Pupils do well across most areas of the curriculum. This is because the majority of subjects are planned and sequenced well. Teachers possess strong subject knowledge. They know what to teach and the order in which to teach it. This means pupils learn and remember more. In some subjects, the curriculum is less well developed. Pupils do not study important content in enough depth and could learn more. Leaders enrich the curriculum with trips and visits. Pupils enjoy visits to museums and to places in their local community. A few pupils cannot recall learning about different cultures when this has been previously taught.
What the school should improve
- In some subjects, the curriculum is less well developed. In these subjects, pupils do not learn content in sufficient depth. This means that pupils are less able to make connections between topics, and this slows their learning. Leaders should ensure that pupils learn important content in appropriate depth so that they are able to learn more and remember more.
- The school does not ensure that pupils have opportunities to revisit previous learning about different cultures. This means that for a few pupils, they are not able to recall their previous learning. Leaders should develop the curriculum to reinforce and embed learning regularly, to ensure that pupils learn and remember important content around wider cultures.
