What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 29 March 2022
Pupils enjoy their time at this school. They feel well looked after and appreciate the care and support that staff provide. Staff have high expectations of pupils' behaviour. From early years onwards, staff help children to manage their behaviour and feelings. Pupils benefit from a broad and ambitious curriculum. This helps them to become confident and successful learners. Pupils are proud to live up to the school's values represented by 'ACHIEVE'. They learn how these values are reflected in a range of world religions and cultures. Pupils collaborate well and listen to each other's views. Pupils learn about healthy relationships and that it is wrong to judge people because of their beliefs or appearance. Pupils say that bullying is rare and that staff help to resolve issues when they occur. Pupils enjoy taking on responsibility. This includes helping in the school garden and looking after the hens and quail. They care about the environment and organise the school's recycling scheme. Pupils take part in raising money for charities. For example, they sponsor a schoolchild in Uganda. This helps prepare pupils to become responsible citizens. Pupils enjoy a range of after-school activities, including in sport and music.
What the school should improve
- In some subjects, assessment is not used consistently well to check what pupils know and understand. This slows pupils' learning down. Leaders should ensure that assessment is used effectively so that pupils can build on their prior learning to develop the knowledge they should in every subject.
- The leadership of some subjects is not well developed. As a result, leaders do not know how effectively the curriculum is being delivered, or how well pupils are learning. Leaders should ensure that subject leaders get the training and support needed to be able to monitor and account for the quality of the curriculum in all subjects.
