What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 6 July 2022
Leaders have high expectations of pupils which are mirrored in the school's motto: 'be the best you can be'. Staff have thought carefully about the content of the curriculum, which builds on what pupils already know. Pupils achieve well across a range of subjects. Pupils work hard in lessons and demonstrate how they are 'Greenhill learners' by showing enthusiasm, independence, creativity and their ability to work collaboratively. Staff provide lots of support to make sure pupils are well looked after. Pupils feel safe in school and know they can turn to adults if they have any worries or concerns. As part of the curriculum, pupils learn how to keep themselves safe both inside and out of school. For example, pupils discussed different strategies they use to keep safe online. Relationships between staff and pupils are friendly, positive and respectful. Pupils follow well-established routines and are well behaved. In class, pupils are eager to contribute to discussions and respect others' opinions. Bullying is rare. When it does happen, staff act swiftly and effectively. Most pupils attend school regularly. There is a small group who do not and because of this they miss out on too many lessons.
What the school should improve
- In some subjects, such as art and design and physical education (PE), monitoring systems are still in development. Because of this, some subject leaders do not have a detailed understanding of the effectiveness of the curriculum across all areas of their subject. Leaders need to ensure subject leaders acquire this information in order to provide teachers with appropriate support and guidance to further improve their subject.
- The attendance of some pupils is too low. As a result, these pupils are missing out on significant amounts of learning. Leaders must improve the attendance of pupils with weak attendance to ensure they benefit from the curriculum on offer.
