What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 12 November 2024
Pupils thrive and blossom at Heathmere. The school has created an environment where high expectations, resilience and respect for all are the norm. Pupils are early at the gate each morning because they want to be in school. They feel safe and are kept safe. Pupils would talk to a trusted adult about any worries they might have, and adults would listen and take their concerns seriously. The school is relentlessly ambitious for every pupil and provides a curriculum designed to enrich pupils' knowledge. Pupils benefit from two well-resourced and inviting libraries in addition to their own class book corner. The mantra 'there are no reluctant readers here, just we have not yet found them the right book' chimes throughout the school. Pupils behave exceptionally well. They treat each other with kindness and respect. The school involves pupils meaningfully in the wider community, for instance through campaigning for a safer street. The school provides many opportunities for pupils to take on positions of leadership and mentor younger peers. Pupils know the difference between being appointed or elected and feel honoured to be trusted. Parents and carers are overwhelmingly positive about the school. They appreciate the extensive support for their children and the whole community.
What the school should improve
- Occasionally, the work selected for some pupils is not focused enough on the intended learning. In addition, the school's work to strengthen key vocabulary acquisition through revisiting across subjects is not fully embedded. This means some pupils struggle to recall previous learning or acquire new learning efficiently. The school should continue to refine those areas of the curriculum that are newer and develop staff expertise so that teaching supports pupils to know and remember more across all curriculum subjects.
