What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 1 July 2025

The school has ensured strong improvements since the last inspection. Expectations for achievement and behaviour are now high. Pupils rise to meet these ambitions by achieving well. Behaviour is positive across calm classrooms and joyful playtimes. Pupils are happy, safe and flourishing in this deeply caring school. They are not worried about bullying because pupils refuse to be bystanders and share any concerns with trusted adults. Pastoral care is a strength. Pupils enjoy calmness and collaboration when they take turns playing pool in the 'Lunchtime Lounge'. Others take care of birds and guinea pigs in the aviary, or enjoy bug hunts at lunch time. A variety of pupil leadership roles encourage active citizenship. Jobs include junior road safety officers, cyber ambassadors and eco monitors (who look after the nurturing sensory garden). These experiences boost well- being for all. Pupils learn to celebrate diversity and promote equity. They learn how to stay safe including online and near roads or water. A rich range of trips and extra-curricular activities enrich school life and help to promote pupils' talents and interests. Residential trips in each year group are character building. Pupils proudly live out the school values of independence, curiosity, resilience, respect and aspiration.

What the school should improve

  • Occasionally, activities do not meet the high ambitions of the curriculum. This means that some pupils do not securely learn important content across subjects. The school should ensure that learning tasks help pupils to achieve well across the curriculum.
  • In some foundation subjects, assessment is not embedded. This means that gaps in pupils' knowledge are not always identified swiftly or addressed. The school should ensure that checks on learning identify and address pupils' misconceptions effectively across the curriculum.
