What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 13 June 2023

Leaders expect the best for and from every pupil. Staff support and challenge pupils to meet these high expectations. There is a shared emphasis on making sure that all pupils keep up with the ambitious learning on offer. For example, pupils who need extra help receive focused 'pre-teach' sessions. These give them a head start on important topics and vocabulary. Parents report that the school's approach has transformed pupils' attitudes as well as accelerating learning. Pupils are highly enthusiastic about their learning. They are keen to accumulate points towards the house competition by living up to the school's values. They are proud of what they achieve. Beyond the classroom, pupils take part in regular productions, performances and showcases. As well as being enjoyable, these give pupils a chance to explore new skills and build their resilience. Pupils behave impeccably. They are highly motivated to make positive choices. This stems from the respectful relationships formed throughout the school community. Pupils learn about how to take a stand against bullying or discrimination. There are clear systems in place to address any worries that pupils may have. As a result, they feel safe and confident in school.
