What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 10 December 2024

The school's ethos is warm and welcoming. Right across the school, pupils' attitudes reflect respect for each other, the wider community and the environment. Pupils care about each other. They are safe and happy. Pupils celebrate difference and are knowledgeable about different faiths. Staff have high expectations of pupils' conduct. Most pupils meet or exceed these expectations. Pupils who need more support to manage their behaviour get the right help. The school offers pupils a rich range of rewards, including 'person of the week', to encourage high self-esteem. The school has a broad and effective curriculum, which continues to rapidly develop. Right from the early years, the school has high expectations of all pupils, including those who are disadvantaged and pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). In most subjects, all pupils learn and remember well. However, in a small number of wider curriculum subjects, pupils' understanding sometimes lacks depth. Pupils with SEND are fully included in the life of the school. Around one third of the school's council is made up of pupils with SEND. The council has a positive impact on the school. Members advocate for new extra-curricular clubs based on suggestions from classmates. They schedule some of the outdoor activities so that everyone gets a turn.

What the school should improve

  • In a small number of wider curriculum subjects, the school has not clearly identified some of the important knowledge and skills that pupils should learn. Where this happens, pupils' knowledge lacks depth. The school should ensure that the important knowledge pupils need to remember is consistently clear across all subjects.
  • Some pupils do not attend school regularly enough. These pupils miss out on learning opportunities and wider experiences when they are not in school. The school should ensure that attendance improves for all groups of pupils in the school.
