What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 9 June 2026
Pupils love coming to school. They arrive in the morning excited to learn about the interesting subjects they study. They show a thirst for knowledge and aspire to become future scientists, historians, mathematicians, musicians and more. Pupils benefit from well embedded, consistent routines and high expectations. These start from the moment children step into the Nursery classroom and last until pupils leave at the end of Year 6. This creates the calm, purposeful and highly positive attitude that permeates the school. Pupils stick to work even when it is challenging. They want to achieve well because they know why this will help them when they are older. Pupils behave incredibly well. They love to be together. They enjoy coming together in the dining hall to listen to music and play card games while eating their lunch. Bullying is rare. Should it happen, staff quickly deal with it. Pupils value the way staff help them. They trust them to give them the help they need, when they need it. Pupils live and breathe their core values in all they do. They show compassion towards each other when they include each other in their games. They display high levels of responsibility when proudly holding leadership positions. Rigorous processes are in place to identify the barriers to success and wellbeing that pupils might face. Staff go above and beyond to provide the right support, at the right time, for pupils and their families. This has a lasting impact on removing these barriers. This includes barriers towards attending school. Pupils attend regularly because they do not want to miss out on being a part of this wonderful school. This means pupils benefit fully from the high-quality offer they receive across all areas of school life. As a result, pupils leave incredibly well prepared for their next steps.
What the school should improve
- Leaders should ensure their plans to refine the way they quality assure and monitor the impact of their work enables them to further enhance the high-quality offer pupils receive across all areas of the school.
