What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 31 October 2023

Pupils show great consideration for others in this aspirational school. They behave very well and work hard to embody the school's values of kindness, excellence, working together, respect and independence. Pupils play together cooperatively. They show very positive attitudes to learning and produce high-quality work. Pupils enjoy learning. They solve complex problems in mathematics and experiment enthusiastically with different media in art. Pupils answer teachers' questions confidently. They share ideas with each other using a range of subject-specific vocabulary and enjoy a rich range of activities beyond the classroom. For example, pupils perform Shakespeare's plays in local theatres and represent the school in cricket, football and boccia. Pupils take up a broad range of leadership opportunities with enthusiasm. They act as sports and library monitors, or welcome visitors to the class as learning ambassadors. Pupils feel very safe in school. They know that staff will deal with any problems they encounter. The school has made pupil and staff well-being a priority. Pupils act as well- being ambassadors, organising games at social times and speaking to pupils on the buddy bench. They set positive examples for their peers and show great kindness to each other.

What the school should improve

  • Occasionally, some pupils do not learn phonics as well as they could. As a result, some fall behind in their reading, and particularly in their fluency. Leaders must plan appropriate support to ensure that pupils catch-up quickly if they fall behind in their phonics understanding.
  • In some foundation subjects staff do not assess what pupils know and understand well enough. As a result, pupils do not consistently remember some of their prior learning. Leaders need to ensure that assessment supports pupils in achieving well in all subjects.
