What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 26 September 2023
This is a friendly school. Many parents and carers said the school strives to make them feel welcome. Pupils and their parents agree that this is a happy place to be. At breaktimes, pupils enjoy the many games and activities that the school makes available. Mostly, pupils behave sensibly. Typically, they are kind to each other. If problems between pupils arise, the school sorts them out fairly. The school fosters trusting professional relationships with school staff and pupils. Pupils' safety and welfare are given high priority. Pupils are safe and feel safe. The school focuses on encouraging pupils to understand their rights and responsibilities. Staff provide opportunities for pupils to learn about the importance of showing respect for others. For example, in assemblies pupils are taught regularly about the importance of equal opportunities and fairness. Pupils have many chances to share their views through various pupil committees. These include an equalities committee, pupil leaders' group and a well-being committee. Recently, pupils' views were consulted to choose the charities that the school will support. Leaders have high expectations for pupils. Published results show that pupils achieve highly in reading and mathematics in particular. Leaders want pupils to understand how feelings and emotions can impact the brain and learning. This is because the school wants pupils to be in the right frame of mind to learn well.
What the school should improve
- On some occasions, the curriculum is not implemented as intended. As a result, pupils do not learn and remember important knowledge as well as they could. The school must make sure that the intended curriculum is implemented appropriately.
- Sometimes, adaptations to teaching and resources made for pupils with SEND are not precise enough to enable them to learn the intended curriculum securely. The school must make sure that adaptations are clear and effective so that pupils are able to learn the intended curriculum.
