What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 3 July 2023
This is a highly inclusive school. Many pupils who are new to the school said that they have been welcomed. Pupils spoken to said that they enjoy attending and everyone is treated fairly. Leaders are ambitious for all pupils, including pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Pupils said that this encourages them to achieve well. Leaders and staff expect pupils to behave well. As a result, pupils are attentive in lessons. Pupils also play well together at social times. Pupils are confident that they can share any worries that they have with staff. Leaders have established effective systems to identify and deal with any incidents of bullying swiftly and effectively. Pupils are considerate of others. They take an active part in charitable work. This includes raising funds for a local children's hospice. Pupils learn how to be active citizens, such as being members of the mini police. They also appreciate the opportunities to hold responsibilities including school and eco-councillors. Pupils enjoy the range of clubs that they have access to, such as choir, culture and sports clubs, which help develop their interests and talents.
What the school should improve
- In a small number of subjects, the curriculum design has not been finalised. This means that pupils do not build on their knowledge in a coherent way. Leaders should ensure that they finalise their curriculum thinking in these areas so that pupils build on prior knowledge when they are learning something new.
- Some parents do not feel well informed about their children's learning or changes in the school. Leaders should improve how they communicate with parents so that they understand the work the school is doing to support their children's education and well-being.
