What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 8 May 2024

This is a school where pupils are expected to demonstrate the school's values of respect, honesty and care in all aspects of school life. Pupils behave well because they are taught how to behave. This starts in the Nursery, where children are taught to listen and follow routines. This positive culture continues through the school. Pupils achieve well across the curriculum. Pupils enjoy coming to this school. They benefit from caring interactions with adults. Staff greet pupils warmly as they enter the school, which creates a positive start to the school day. Pupils explain that if they have a worry there is an adult who will listen to them. This means that they feel safe. Pupils take pride in their leadership roles. For example, some pupils are 'playground friends', and they support younger pupils who might need someone to play with. Pupils in the 'eco council' spoke to parents and carers about the negative impact of leaving their car engines running, because these pupils want to look after their environment. The school provides a range of clubs, including cricket, karate and netball club. These activities aim to help pupils to develop their talents and pursue their interests.

What the school should improve

  • Sometimes, pupils with SEND do not receive effective support to access the curriculum. In addition, strategies set out on some support plans are not precise enough. This means that adaptations and support are not fully matched to these pupils' needs and pupils do not learn the knowledge and skills that the school intends as well as they could. The school should ensure that support for pupils with SEND is effective and support plans precisely identify strategies to help pupils overcome barriers.
