What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 18 January 2023

Pupils feel safe and well cared for at this friendly school. They like their teachers and know their teachers like them. They feel confident to speak to adults about their hopes, dreams and any worries they might have. As a result, pupils enjoy attending. Pupils are polite and welcoming to visitors. Most of the time, there is a calm, orderly feel to the school. Behaviour around school and in lessons is generally good, but not always. Some pupils find it hard to control their emotions and behaviour. A strong pastoral team provides excellent support, which helps pupils to become more mature, confident and able to cope. Pupils know what bullying is. They say it happens sometimes. Staff deal with any incidents quickly. Pupils value this. The school motto is: 'Dream, Believe and Succeed Together'. Leaders want all pupils to aspire highly and succeed. The school's curriculum, and the opportunities given to pupils to widen their horizons, help pupils achieve this. Pupils learn a lot in reading, writing and mathematics. Across the rest of the curriculum, some subjects are stronger than others.

What the school should improve

  • In a few foundation subjects, leaders have not planned and sequenced learning carefully enough so that pupils learn all the subject-specific knowledge they need. Classroom learning materials do not always support leaders' high ambitions and intentions for the curriculum. This means that some pupils do not have the opportunity to develop deep knowledge and achieve as well as they could. Leaders should review some aspects of curriculum design and the resources teachers use. They should do this so that all pupils can achieve as highly as possible.
  • A few pupils who find self-control difficult do not always understand, or meet, leaders' high expectations of behaviour. Staff do not always act swiftly enough to stop low-level disruption in lessons. As a result, at times, some learning time is lost. Leaders should continue to support all members of the school community to realise their high expectations for the management of behaviour. They should do this so that all pupils receive appropriate support and learning can continue without disruption.
