What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 3 October 2023
Kingsbury School staff and the majority of pupils share the same high ambitions which have been raised rapidly. Pupils understand and follow the school's aims to 'enthuse, aspire and achieve'. Pupils speak positively about the support they receive. Warm and respectful relationships characterise life at this school. Pupils are happy and safe. Pupils' behaviour and attitudes to their learning during structured lesson times are respectful and positive. During unstructured times, such as breaks and lunch, some pupils do not behave sensibly. Staff speak with these pupils to ensure they understand the school's high expectations around behaviour. Staff act quickly and efficiently to address any behaviour issues. The school places a strong emphasis on pupils' personal development. Senior pupils on the leadership team are proud to support others. Pupil librarians and anti-bullying ambassadors actively promote a positive environment. These roles help pupils understand how to be responsible. The extra-curricular programme is rich and diverse. Pupils take part in a range of clubs such as sports, cheerleading and music. Pupils value being able to participate in the Duke of Edinburgh's Award scheme and school productions.
What the school should improve
- Some pupils do not behave well enough during unstructured times. This disrupts the social times of others. The school should continue to raise expectations for behaviour throughout the school community to ensure that all pupils have a positive experience of social times.
- Some pupils miss too much school. This holds back their progress and achievement. The school should work closely with parents and external agencies to communicate effectively and secure more regular attendance for all pupils. Academy 3
