What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 21 May 2024
Children learn to become confident and curious learners in this wonderfully inclusive and nurturing school. From the moment children join, staff prioritise getting to know them and their families well. This means that children receive the support they need to help them excel. This particularly benefits the large number of children who speak English as an additional language or children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Staff use their expert knowledge and training to create fun and stimulating learning experiences that meet individual needs. These purposeful opportunities develop children's knowledge and skills effectively. Children learn to create elaborate stories using a wide range of impressive vocabulary. Children who speak Polish, Urdu or Punjabi are also supported well by multilingual staff. This rapidly enhances children's language acquisition and comprehension. Consequently, these children quickly become fluent in English and communicate with their peers effectively. High standards of care and education ensure every child achieves their best. Children show an excellent attitude towards learning and each other. They play cooperatively, forming positive friendships. The school rules about being 'ready, respectful and safe' are understood by all. Consistent routines, such as tidying up as you go, ensure children are respectful of their environment.
