What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 26 November 2024

Pupils thrive in this caring and supportive school. They live out the school values of kindness, integrity, curiosity and resilience every day. The school has close partnerships with parents and carers and the community. For example, football coaches from the local club visit the school weekly to work with pupils who show an interest in sport. The school develops pupils' knowledge through an ambitious curriculum. Staff have high expectations for all pupils. As a result, pupils achieve well in their learning. This includes pupils who join the school at different times. Older pupils visit the local secondary schools which makes them feel excited and prepared for the next stage in their education. Pupils have positive attitudes to learning. On occasion, some younger pupils lose concentration in lessons and do not pay attention to what their teachers are explaining. Pupils behave co-operatively at breaktimes and are kind to their peers. Pupils feel happy and safe. They say their teachers are there to help them learn and be successful. Staff listen carefully to pupils' views and, when possible, make changes they have asked for. Pupils value the many clubs they can attend such as choir, street dance and basketball.

What the school should improve

  • On occasion, some younger pupils are not paying sufficient attention during lessons and can become distracted and lose focus. This means that they do not learn and remember what they have been taught as effectively as they could. The school should ensure that staff consistently have high expectations for pupils' attention and focus during lessons to support their learning well.
  • There is some inconsistency in how precisely the school's ambitious curriculum is implemented. As a result, some pupils do not secure the depth of knowledge and understanding that they are capable of. The school should ensure that staff consistently have the knowledge and skills needed to deliver the curriculum effectively.
