What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 4 October 2022

Lindridge St Lawrence is a happy and welcoming school. It has a strong focus on nurturing the whole child. All staff promote the school's inclusive values of 'Hesed, Hamdah, Honesty and Horizons'. These are carefully woven through all aspects of school life. Overall, pupils achieve well. Staff have high expectations of pupils and expect them to work hard and achieve their best. They want all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), to become well-rounded learners. Pupils respond with positivity and enjoy the work that their teachers prepare for them. Staff know the pupils very well. Relationships between staff and pupils are positive. Pupils are respectful and polite in lessons and at play. They respond maturely to the routines in place to support positive behaviour. Bullying is rare but if it happens, adults sort it out quickly. Pupils feel safe and appreciate how much the adults at school care about them. Pupils enjoy the variety of trips and visits that the school has on offer. They talk enthusiastically about the clubs, including mechanics, art, sewing and multisport. There are also many opportunities for pupils to take on additional responsibilities.

What the school should improve

  • Leaders have not yet reviewed and evaluated the recently introduced aspects of the curriculum. This means that leaders do not know if the new curriculums are enabling pupils to achieve well. Leaders should ensure that they monitor the implementation of the curriculum carefully, to assure themselves that all pupils are achieving well.
  • In some subjects, pupils do not have enough opportunities to practise and demonstrate what they have previously learned. This means that, in these subjects, pupils struggle to remember what they have been taught. Leaders should ensure that pupils have regular opportunities to revisit learning so that they know and remember more long term.
