What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 20 February 2024

Pupils really enjoy learning at this school. As they work and play, pupils consistently exhibit the school's values of being respectful, responsible and resilient. Pupils' pride in their school is reflected in how they help out in the school community, for example, by taking on responsibilities as librarians and house captains. Leaders' and staff's work is tightly focused on ensuring that pupils flourish in their learning and wider development. Pupils' achievements are strong. The curriculum is academically ambitious for all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Well-focused training for staff ensures that they have the knowledge and expertise to deliver this curriculum well. Pupils are supported to remember and apply subject content with fluency. Behaviour, both inside and outside of lessons, is a strength of the school. This is because the school has clear routines which are well understood and followed by all. From Nursery through to Year 6, pupils support each other with kindness and consideration, whether they are learning or enjoying social times together. The inspiring and broad curriculum, along with the school's calm and nurturing environment, mean that pupils relish learning and enjoy coming to school each day. Pupils are kept safe and are well looked after. Safeguarding is front and centre of all leaders do here.
