What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 7 November 2023
Horsenden is a vibrant and friendly place. Pupils enjoy coming to school and mix well together. They are safe and happy here. The school has high expectations for pupils. All pupils follow the school's ambitious curriculum, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Pupils appreciate the regular opportunities the school provides to discuss and debate their ideas. For example, they enjoy considering different beliefs and perspectives. Pupils behave well in lessons and around school. They demonstrate positive attitudes to their learning. Children in early years follow routines sensibly and settle well. The school ensures that pupils who may struggle to manage their behaviour receive effective support. Pupils are considerate of each other and understand the importance of kindness and respect. Bullying is rare and staff take swift action if it occurs. Pupils have a wide range of opportunities for their wider development. They relish taking up responsibilities such as anti-bullying ambassadors, eco ambassadors and play leaders. They look forward to taking part in activities such as a science debating club at a local secondary school.
What the school should improve
- The school's ambitious curriculum is not firmly embedded. In a few subjects, this is at an earlier stage of development. In these subjects, pupils do not secure the same depth of knowledge and understanding. The school should continue to implement their plans to embed the curriculum fully, providing the required training to staff and checking the impact of actions taken.
