What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 28 February 2024
Pupils love their school. They talk with enthusiasm about the many exciting learning opportunities. Pupils are proud of their academic achievements as well as their contributions to school life. Pupils' leadership roles impact the school community positively. Pupils in the 'safeguarding committee' help others on how to stay safe. For instance, delivering assemblies on firework and online safety. Eco-ambassadors encourage others to look after the environment. Behaviour is positive across the school, and pupils know and respect the school values. They are kind to and support each other, including when learning. Staff promote and encourage pupils to be ambitious. This is modelled across the school with all staff having high aspirations and expectations of all pupils. Working relationships between staff and pupils are positive. Pupils know that if they have concerns or worries an adult will listen. The school ensures that pupils gain life experiences. For instance, pupils enjoy theatre visits, outings to museums and musical workshops. Pupils are proud to represent the school in sporting tournaments. They value the work they do in the local community, including the community garden and with the local hospice.
What the school should improve
- In some foundation subjects, the school's curriculum thinking is still being developed. This has led to some gaps in pupils' knowledge and understanding in these subjects. The school needs to ensure that the curriculum is sequenced securely across all subjects, from early years to Year 6, to enable pupils to secure their understanding.
