What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 17 April 2024
The school provides a warm and welcoming learning environment for its pupils. Leaders create a strong culture within the school through its values of belonging, respect, compassion, collaboration and ambition. The school ensures that all members of the community feel valued, for example through the diverse texts that are read in class and the International Mother Language Day. The school provides well-thought-out support to families, for example adult education classes in English, mathematics and digital skills. The school has created a broad and ambitious curriculum from Nursery to Year 6. The impact of this curriculum is increasingly demonstrated through pupils' work and published outcomes in national tests. Leaders have high expectations of pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Pupils rise to those expectations. Their behaviour in class and around the school is exemplary. Pupils are polite and respectful to adults and each other. They know that they can talk to an adult if they have any concerns. As a result, pupils feel happy and safe in school. The school encourages pupils to become active citizens who have a voice in their school. Pupils can join the school parliament. Older pupils can apply to join the junior leadership team and become sports leaders, digital leaders or school librarians.
What the school should improve
- Occasionally, in some subjects systems to support pupils' development of more ambitious knowledge and understanding of the curriculum are not fully embedded. This means that some pupils do not develop the deeper subject knowledge and understanding required to progress further in their learning. The school must ensure that teaching implements the ambitious curricular goals more consistently and systematically so that pupils are able to deepen and extend their learning.
- At times, the PSHE curriculum is not implemented as rigorously and consistently as the school would like. This means that pupils are not able to recall some important content well. The school must ensure that the teaching of the PSHE curriculum is prioritised in all classes so that pupils can recall the key knowledge that prepares them for life in modern Britain.
