What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 12 May 2026

Caring relationships are at the heart of this friendly, welcoming school. Pupils show respect for each other and for staff and visitors. They are well cared for and know they can turn to an adult for support if they need help to manage their emotions. Consequently, pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), feel safe and happy. Leaders quickly identify pupils’ needs and barriers to their learning, attendance and wellbeing. This includes disadvantaged pupils and pupils with SEND. Leaders make sure that these pupils receive the support they need to flourish. Pupils typically behave well around the school and during social times. Classrooms are calm and orderly, allowing pupils to focus on their learning. They play well together at playtimes and make friends. Pupils trust adults to resolve any unkindness swiftly, including bullying. They are taught how to keep themselves safe online and offline. Pupils want to learn. They are enthusiastic about their work. For example, pupils talk with confidence about the Vikings and how rivers are formed. They use new vocabulary linked to these subjects appropriately because they have been taught well. Pupils, including those with SEND, generally achieve well across the curriculum. They are ready for the next stage in their education. However, in the early years, children do not learn as consistently well as leaders intend. Leaders help pupils to support charitable activities in the local area, perform at community events and work closely with pupils in other schools across the trust. Pupils benefit from opportunities to keep fit and active. They learn about careers and how to manage their money. Pupils also visit a local university, which raises their aspirations for the future.

What the school should improve

  • Leaders should ensure that the early years curriculum is taught well so that children learn all that they should in readiness for their next stage of learning.
