What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 8 March 2022

Pupils receive an education rich in knowledge, complemented by excellent provision to support their personal development. Leaders actively seek ways to improve life chances for the pupils in their care. They are passionate about their duty to support the local community. A culture of high aspirations for all provides the foundations for pupils to flourish in their learning. Together with staff, leaders aim to help all pupils 'step into their greatness'. This vision is put into practice through a demanding, stimulating curriculum across all subjects. Teachers are experts in their subjects and well qualified. They make sure that all pupils acquire deep, secure knowledge and achieve consistently well. Pupils enjoy school and feel safe. They are well supported by staff. In lessons, pupils typically work hard and appreciate the support and guidance staff provide. On the rare occasions that bullying occurs, it is dealt with effectively by staff. Parents and carers appreciate the way in which the school combines strong pastoral care with high expectations for academic achievement. They value the way leaders and staff understand and cater for each pupil's individual needs and circumstances, including those pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Parents also spoke positively about leaders' work during the COVID-19 pandemic.
