What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 6 December 2023
Pupils are happy and well cared for at this school. Staff, parents and carers, and pupils feel very proud to be part of this welcoming and supportive school community. The school's values, such as compassion, generosity and creativity, are at the heart of everything here. Leaders have created an environment where pupils are expected to work hard and behave well. Pupils engage in their learning and achieve highly. They have positive relationships with staff and are kind and respectful to one another. Pupils enjoy coming to school and are helped to use their imaginations and be creative. For example, pupils are encouraged to express their ideas through writing, music, art and mathematics. Leaders provide a wide range of opportunities for all pupils to develop their interests and talents. These include a variety of clubs, such as orchestra, knitting, art, and gymnastics. Pupils are eager to contribute to their community and take on responsibilities that help them to be active citizens. For example, pupils participate in the school council and enjoy singing in the local community.
What the school should improve
- In a few subjects, the curriculum is not as well developed as in other subjects. Where this is the case, the school has not identified the essential knowledge that pupils need to know and remember. This affects how well pupils learn key curriculum content. Leaders should continue their work to strengthen the curriculum in these subjects.
