What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 8 October 2024
Pupils thrive at this caring and inclusive school. This is typified by the warm welcome pupils receive each morning. The school is ambitious for all pupils, including pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Pupils receive the support they need to achieve well. The school is determined to give pupils the best possible start. The school enriches the curriculum through educational trips and visiting speakers. There are visits to places of worship and talks by authors and members of the emergency services. Pupils are enthusiastic about these experiences, which they say help them to think about careers they would like in the future. Pupils feel safe in school and feel confident to share their worries with staff. The school has high expectations for pupils' behaviour. There are well-established classroom routines, including in the early years. Pupils know what is expected of them and behaviour in lessons is positive. The school has ensured that effective support is in place for a small number of pupils who struggle to manage their own behaviour or emotions. However, during some social times, expectations for behaviour are not reinforced consistently. When this happens, some pupils do not behave as well as leaders expect.
What the school should improve
- In a few subjects, teachers do not routinely check how well pupils have learned important knowledge. When this happens, teachers do not identify accurately when some pupils do not remember important learning or when other pupils are ready to learn something new. The school should ensure that teachers use assessment strategies more effectively so that pupils undertake tasks better matched to what they know and can do.
- During social times, staff occasionally miss opportunities to reinforce the behaviour expectations as set out by leaders. This means that some pupils do not consistently follow rules and routines and behave as well as leaders would expect. The school should ensure that staff have the confidence to manage all pupils' behaviour consistently well.
