What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 3 October 2023
Pupils are proud to be part of this 'small but mighty' school. They love the community feel, where everyone grows and learns in harmony. Good relationships are at the heart of the school. Older and younger children play happily together. From the early years, children look out for each other. Pupils show consideration and compassion. They trust staff to understand and care for them. This helps pupils to feel safe and confident. Pupils know the behaviours that adults expect. Rules are clear and fair. Pupils understand the importance of behaving well and working hard. They do their best to listen carefully to their teachers. Everyone tries hard and gets on with the tasks set in class. At breaktimes, there is something for everyone to enjoy, from relaxing on a beanbag with a good book to creating and performing dances with friends. There is a range of well-attended clubs. Before- and after-school care starts and ends each day with games, friendship and fun. Pupils enjoy attending sports clubs, such as gymnastics and dodgeball, and other clubs such as bracelet making or construction. These allow pupils to develop their talents and interests. Trips and visitors help pupils to understand and remember their learning.
What the school should improve
- The curriculum clearly sets out what pupils are to learn, but in a few subjects, some pupils do not remember what they have previously been taught or do not apply their new learning well. They do not achieve as well in these subjects as they do in the rest of the curriculum. The school should ensure that all adults have the expertise they need to deliver the curriculum in place effectively.
- Systems to plan and evaluate the support for pupils with SEND are not well integrated. As a result, leaders find it hard to check what is in place and to know how well it is working. The school should ensure that plans and provision for pupils with SEND are evaluated fully so that leaders know what is working well and where adjustments may be required.
