What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 29 November 2022

Hornsea Burton is a happy and friendly school. Three key rules underpin pupils' experiences at school; 'be kind, be safe and be the best you can be'. Staff expectations of pupils' behaviour are high. Classrooms are calm and orderly. Most pupils are keen to do their best and concentrate well. Pupils learn to value people from different backgrounds and cultures. They respect themselves and others. Bullying is rare and pupils feel safe. They are confident that adults in school will help if they have a problem. The curriculum helps pupils to learn about personal safety, including online safety. In most subjects, pupils are taught new concepts in a logical order. This helps them to remember their learning. However, in some subjects, learning activities are not well sequenced. Pupils enjoy playing games at breakfast club. Many pupils attend the range of after- school clubs, such as dance and 'mini kickers club'. Pupils take part in the 'daily mile'. They enjoy both the exercise and the opportunity to talk to their friends. Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are fully included in the life of the school. They benefit from well-planned teaching and support.

What the school should improve

  • In a small number of subjects, curriculum planning does not always follow a logical sequence. Pupils do not make as much progress as they could because they do not have the prior knowledge they need to access new learning. Leaders should ensure that planning is carefully sequenced in all subjects.
  • In some subjects, teachers do not do enough to help pupils remember their learning. Pupils do not remember some of the important knowledge and subject- specific vocabulary they need. Leaders should ensure that teachers provide more opportunities to help pupils to remember their learning and use subject-specific vocabulary.
  • Some pupils do not attend school regularly. These pupils miss important learning. Leaders should continue to raise expectations of good attendance for all and intervene early when needed.
