What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 8 October 2024

This is a school that pupils are proud to attend. The school has high expectations of pupils. Pupils demonstrate respectful behaviour. Warm professional relationships between adults and pupils are evident across the school. The school supports and nurtures pupils. Consequently, pupils feel safe. Pupils enjoy attending a range of clubs such as gymnastics, gardening club and library club. The school provides several opportunities for pupils to develop skills in leadership. Reading ambassadors, school councillors and school values champions contribute well to the life of the school. Assemblies and visitors to the school develop pupils' knowledge and understanding of topics such as equality and diversity. The school has experienced a period of change in recent years. The school is united in its ambition for all pupils to achieve well. Several improvements made to the school are having a positive impact on pupils. The school has high expectations for what pupils will learn in the curriculum and this is seen in the curriculum plans for most subjects. Despite the positive steps forward, some pupils do not attend school as regularly as they should. They miss out on important learning and wider opportunities.

What the school should improve

  • Some pupils do not attend school as regularly as they should. As a result, they miss out on important learning and opportunities to build relationships with their peers. The school should improve its analysis of attendance to ensure the strategies it uses when working with pupils and their parents lead to improved attendance.
  • The school does not routinely check that actions taken, such as providing interventions for those pupils who have gaps in their learning, are having the intended impact. This means that the school does not have sufficient oversight of which actions are effective or not. The school should ensure that it checks the impact of any action it has taken to improve pupils' learning.
