What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 21 February 2024

Pupils are happy to be a part of this welcoming and inclusive school. Pupils enjoy learning and playing together. They know who to speak to about any concerns they have. They feel safe because trusted adults look after them. The school values of respect and resilience are understood by all pupils. Pupils use these values to enhance their learning. Overall, pupils achieve well. They also behave very well. The school's approach to managing behaviour is thorough. It helps pupils to reflect on how their behaviour has made other pupils feel. This encourages pupils to make the right choices with the help of the 'Meadow Green Bees' rights and expectations. Incidents of inappropriate behaviour and bullying are infrequent. They are dealt with appropriately when they do happen. Through the personal, social and health and economic (PSHE) education curriculum, pupils learn about topics such as money management, online safety and healthy and unhealthy relationships. There are a range of extra-curricular activities that are well attended. These include various sporting activities, cheerleading and knitting. There are many opportunities for pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), to be involved in school events. For example, the members of the school choir have showcased their talents by performing for members of the local memory café.

What the school should improve

  • In a small number of subjects, leaders do not systematically check the impact of their work. This means that they do not know what is going well and what needs to improve. The school should make sure they further develop effective processes to enable them to monitor the impact of the strategies they expect all staff to follow.
  • In some subjects, staff do not choose the most effective learning activity to support the intended learning. This means that pupils are not securing what they know to the depth that they require to build their learning over time. The school should continue to provide support and guidance for teachers to ensure that curriculum implementation is consistently effective.
