What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 25 May 2023

Pupils, including children in the early years, are proud to belong to this welcoming school community. Strong, warm and caring relationships characterise this school. Pupils show high levels of respect for staff and understand the importance of being kind to each other. They are happy to attend school. Pupils told the inspector that they value the many friendships that they have with their peers. Pupils enjoy learning. They work hard to meet the high expectations that leaders and staff have of their academic achievement and personal development. Most pupils, including pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), achieve well in many subjects. Staff have high expectations of pupils' behaviour. As a result, pupils behave well in and around the school. They trust that staff will help them if they have any concerns. Pupils are kind and make sure that they include everyone. If bullying should happen, leaders deal with it quickly. This helps pupils to feel safe. Pupils take advantage of the wide range of enrichment activities on offer. They like attending after-school clubs, which range from photography to creative writing. They also value their leadership roles in the school, for example as school counsellors and buddies.

What the school should improve

  • A few subject leaders are relatively new to their role. They have not had enough opportunity to assess the impact of their curriculum design on what pupils know and remember. This means that these leaders do not know if teachers are implementing the curriculum consistently well. Senior leaders should make sure that subject leaders conduct these checks to ensure maximum impact on pupils' achievement.
  • Leaders do not make sure that all pupils read a wide range of literature by a diverse mix of authors. This hinders some pupils from developing a love of reading and achieving as well as they could. Leaders should make sure that pupils experience a broad range of texts to help promote their desire to read often.
