What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 17 December 2024

Pupils are well cared for at this friendly school. Staff help pupils to identify their emotions. They guide pupils to respond to their feelings in healthy ways that support their well- being. This contributes to pupils being happy and safe at school. The school has high expectations. School and trust leaders work closely to identify ways to support pupils' success in all areas of school life. Pupils typically achieve well, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Pupils behave well. The school teaches pupils about its values, such as 'empathy'. This helps pupils to treat others with kindness and respect, for instance by inviting anyone they see sitting on the 'buddy bench' to play with them at social times. Pupils take up responsibility widely. For example, pupils grow food and sell their produce as part of the 'eco warriors' club. The school provides extensive high-quality enrichment activities. Clubs such as taekwondo, lacrosse, chess and drama are widely taken up. Many pupils receive instrumental lessons, including flute, piano and guitar. Pupils learn about wildlife in regular outdoor learning sessions. Educational visits broaden pupils' experiences, such as residential visits in Year 4 and Year 6 where pupils camp outdoors and visit Norfolk.

What the school should improve

  • On occasion, teachers do not check pupils' understanding of key content systematically. As a result, some pupils have misconceptions or gaps in their knowledge that are not identified and addressed swiftly. The trust should ensure that the school makes timely checks on pupils' understanding. It should ensure that the school uses information gained from assessments to make suitable adaptations so that pupils develop detailed and secure knowledge in all areas of the curriculum.
  • In some instances, pupils have not had sufficient opportunities to practise at the early stages of reading and writing. As a result, some pupils read and write less fluently than they might. The trust should ensure that the school makes regular checks on the impact of its work to help pupils to catch up quickly where needed.
