What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 11 February 2025
Pupils enjoy school. They learn how to be good friends who respect that everyone is different. They understand the school values of 'respect, nurture, inspire, aspire'. They try hard to meet these goals. As a result, they have positive relationships with each other and include others. Staff have high expectations of pupils' behaviour and learning. Pupils know they need to be ready, respectful and safe at all times. This starts in the early years. Most pupils follow these rules consistently. For example, pupils are keen to learn new things. They listen to their teachers carefully. Pupils are interested, engaged learners who achieve well. Pupils trust the staff to help and support them. The strong relationships in school mean everyone looks out for each other. Pupils feel safe. Pupils love the wide range of opportunities open to them. They talk with enthusiasm about the trips and visits they undertake. They learn about important topics in assembly that help to keep them safe. Pupils are excited to hear about the careers that are open to them if they aspire. They support their local community and each other to improve and develop further. They become responsible, active citizens.
What the school should improve
- The checks the school makes on what pupils know and can do are not used effectively in some subjects. They do not give staff the information they need to identify pupils' next steps in learning accurately or identify and close gaps in pupils' learning. The school should ensure that assessment processes in all curriculum areas are effective and that teachers use them to identify pupils' next steps in learning so that they achieve as well as possible across the curriculum.
- During social times, the school's behaviour policy is not implemented consistently. Consequently, some pupils' behaviour does not meet the school's expectations. Pupils sometimes repeat unacceptable behaviour. The school should ensure that all staff are familiar with the expectations of the behaviour policy and implement it consistently well.
