What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 7 December 2022
Henry Tyndale is a happy, caring and inclusive school. There is a smile and warm greeting for each pupil every time they meet an adult. Positive relationships help pupils to flourish. Their days are full of interesting activities. Leaders and teachers set high standards. They expect maximum effort, but they make learning fun and always praise good work. Pupils are treated as individuals, and they are also very much part of a social group. Right from the early years, children learn to listen and develop language skills. Step by step, they grow in confidence and find effective ways to communicate their ideas. Each class has a weekly visit to the local community to apply their learning with a real-life task. They might go to the swimming pool or park, buy shopping from the supermarket, or visit the library. Pupils told inspectors that they feel safe at school. Staff are always on hand to help them with any worries. Pupils behave very well. Skilled staff support any pupil who struggles so they can get back to learning. Staff notice and deal with every incident. Records confirm that bullying is very unusual.
