What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 3 June 2025
Pupils take pride in attending this small and welcoming school. They work hard and behave exceptionally well. Pupils confidently discuss their learning and share the knowledge they have acquired. They show commitment to their education. Staff maintain very high expectations for the pupils' behaviour. Pupils learn about appropriate conduct and receive praise for behaving well. This helps to motivate them further. They move calmly around the school. In lessons, pupils demonstrate their understanding of good behaviour by showing focus. They are highly attentive. This creates a positive environment where children can concentrate. Pupils make strong progress across the broad curriculum. They know that learning more will help them to be able to choose interesting and rewarding careers. Pupils learn to express themselves confidently. Some pupils have extra responsibilities, such as being members of the school council. Pupils have to earn this role and make a speech, and others elect them. These additional roles further develop pupils' leadership skills. Learning about the wider world is important to the school and the pupils. They show interest in others' opinions and learn to adopt a compassionate view toward different ideas. Pupils greatly enjoy their trips, which help enhance their knowledge of the curriculum.
What the school should improve
- In some subjects, learning tasks are overly structured and/or closed. This means that pupils have fewer opportunities to deepen their understanding, leading to slower progress across the curriculum. Leaders should ensure that learning tasks allow pupils to think in sufficient depth, explain their thoughts and consolidate their knowledge further.
- The school does not precisely identify some pupils' needs. This means that some pupils will have difficulties that are not identified and addressed. The school needs to ensure that it has more precise ways to check pupils' knowledge gaps and challenges and provide the tailored support necessary for them.
