What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 22 October 2024

All pupils are warmly welcomed into this thriving school community. Pupils, regardless of individual need or ability are cared for by a dedicated and committed staff team. Adults strive every day to provide the very best education for the pupils in their care. Pupils quickly develop a sense that they belong here, whether they are part of the specialised resource provision (the Aviary) or have recently joined the school from overseas. Pupils across school form positive relationships with adults and each other. They want to do their best and work hard. Behaviour is positive. Those pupils who need additional help to manage their behaviour and emotions receive this from well-trained staff. Routines in place support all pupils to know the expectations of their school. This includes pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) within the Aviary or within the main school. Pupils feel safe and exceptionally well cared for. The school has high aspirations for its pupils. The curriculum is ambitious and adapted so that these expectations are realised. All pupils achieve well. Opportunities and experiences provided by the school ensure that pupils succeed not just academically, but as part of their wider social, emotional and physical development.

What the school should improve

  • Although strategies are in place for governors to gather information about the school, they are not currently using this information to support and challenge the school as strategically as they could. Governors, particularly those new to the role, should continue to access the training already started to develop their knowledge and oversight of all aspects of school life.
