What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 8 July 2025

Staff and pupils embrace the school's values of ready, respectful, safe, and kind. Their strong relationships and mutual respect create a warm and welcoming community. Everyone feels valued at this school. High expectations are set for pupils' attainment and behaviour. Pupils achieve well. Their behaviour is exemplary. Pupils love talking about their learning and how much they enjoy their lessons. They value having a trusted adult they can turn to if they have any concerns or worries. Pupils feel safe. Pupils benefit from the extensive offer which promotes their wider interests. They develop their talents and interests well through public speaking, delivering assemblies and music performances. Through the school's own award for leadership, skills, character, and personal growth, pupils support people at home and in their community. These experiences and their charity action projects equip pupils exceptionally well for the future. The school encourages pupils' understanding of diversity excellently. Pupils value assemblies, where the school celebrates festivals of their own and different faiths. They are strong representatives of their inclusive school. Pupils' care for others is highlighted by their extensive community work, such as collecting donations for the food bank. Their enthusiasm for helping others shines through their conversations.

What the school should improve

  • The expectations for writing are not consistently high in some subjects across the curriculum. This means that the quality of work pupils produce is sometimes not to the standards expected of them. The school should ensure that high expectations enable pupils to develop their writing in line with the same high standards across the curriculum.
  • Sometimes, the design of activities in early years does not help children to deepen their curiosity and engagement with learning. This limits some children's concentration during their learning. The school should ensure that activities and implementation of the curriculum foster children's high standards of engagement.
