What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 17 May 2023
Leaders have created an inclusive, nurturing and caring ethos in this warm and welcoming school. The school's core values, which include trust, courage and compassion, are the foundations of this ethos. Staff are excellent role models and relationships between adults and pupils are respectful. Staff support each other and work very well as a team. Pupils enjoy their learning and feel safe in school. Staff work hard to keep pupils safe. The pastoral support pupils receive is strong. As a result, pupils know they can turn to adults if they have any worries or concerns. Leaders have high expectations of what pupils can achieve. Staff have worked tirelessly and now pupils learn through a curriculum which is made up of a wide range of subjects. Pupils are respectful, polite and behave well throughout the school day. There are well-established, consistent routines to support leaders' high expectations of behaviour. Incidents of bullying are rare. When they do occur, pupils know adults are quick to sort out the problems. Most pupils attend school regularly. However, a few pupils do not and, because of this, they do not fully benefit from the curriculum.
What the school should improve
- Leaders have developed an ambitious curriculum. Most of the curriculum is well embedded. Some subjects do not match the quality of the more developed subject areas. Because of this, what pupils know is stronger in some subject areas than others. Leaders should further develop the curriculum so that it is of a consistent quality across all subject areas.
- Leaders have focused on attendance, which has brought about improvements. However, not all pupils attend regularly and, as a result, they miss out on essential learning. Leaders should maintain this drive so that these pupils fully benefit from the curriculum on offer.
