What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 1 November 2022
Pupils are truly happy at Haversham. Dedicated staff aim to 'bring out the best in everyone'. Parents and carers are delighted with how the school cares for their children. Pupils feel secure and safe at school. They very much enjoy school life. Leaders have created a vibrant place with spacious and attractive grounds to get pupils active and play freely. Children in early years settle quickly and comfortably. Haversham's ethos is one where pupils behave and work hard. Adults teach the youngest children the rules and routines to establish a calm and positive environment. Older pupils act as great role models through their words and actions. As a result, nobody worries about bullying. Where there might be the odd fall-out, staff soothe any anxieties. This results in friendly pupils who see the good in people. Staff focus on developing the character of pupils. The school council provides an insightful voice to share views and bring about change for the better. Pupils love the many enrichment clubs. They can explore their talents in sport, music, cooking and gardening. Pupils cannot wait for the restart of the residential trips in key stage 2 that had to pause because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
What the school should improve
- In some subjects and areas of learning, not all component knowledge is precisely identified. This means pupils are sometimes not acquiring new information in the right order. Leaders need to ensure that across all subjects, knowledge is well sequenced from the beginning of Reception through to the end of Year 6.
- Subject leaders' skills in checking the quality and impact of the curriculum are at an early stage. Not all leaders are clear about what they should be looking for when monitoring standards. Senior leaders need to continue with the professional development programme in place to enhance subject leaders' knowledge.
- On occasion, teachers can set work which does not closely align to what pupils must know within a subject. This can particularly affect some pupils with SEND. Leaders need to further develop teachers' understanding of how best to deliver the ambitious curriculum to enable all pupils to learn well.
