What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 3 October 2023
Pupils are proud to be members of their highly diverse school community. The actions of staff and the school's caring ethos help pupils to feel welcomed and supported. Pupils from all backgrounds relate to the school's values of 'respect, honesty and love', and they strive to embody them. Pupils feel a real ownership of the school because of the well-judged opportunities provided for them to take on responsibility. This leads to a calm and welcoming atmosphere. Sports leaders and Year 6 prefects act as role models for younger pupils, who aspire to be like them. At break and lunchtime, 'pupil mediators', elected by their peers, help to resolve any conflict that may arise. This is typical of pupils' willingness to contribute to the life of the school. Pupils say that they value the wide range of additional activities the school provides. These include sports clubs and competitions, artistic endeavours, and performances. Pupils are proud of performing in school plays and concerts with audiences of their classmates and parents. One described how they were 'nervous at the start', but their teacher's faith in them helped them to know they could do it.
What the school should improve
- In some subjects, some of the specific knowledge and vocabulary that pupils will learn are not precisely and explicitly taught. This means that pupils are less secure in using and applying subject-specific knowledge to explore and deepen their understanding. The school should continue with its work in helping pupils learn the intended knowledge across the school's curriculum.
- Some pupils are not yet attending school as regularly as they should. As a result, they are missing out on vital learning. The school needs to continue to strengthen its actions to support improvement in the attendance of these pupils.
