What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 16 April 2024
Pupils are proud of their school. They enjoy having fun at lunchtimes with their friends from other classes. Pupils know how to be good friends to each other. They appreciate their peers' kindness, loyalty and care. Pupils understand the school rules: 'ready, respectful, safe'. They follow these rules well. This allows pupils to learn in a focused and supportive environment. They encourage each other to behave well. Staff quickly resolve any incidents. Expectations are high. Pupils are interested in their learning and want to do well. They develop the skills to work independently. This includes pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Pupils try hard. They are pleased and proud when they produce successful work. The school is a happy place. Pupils understand that everyone is different and respect these differences. They enjoy hearing about other places, times and people. There is a wide range of opportunities for pupils to develop their talents and interests. They enjoy their pupil ambassador roles. These include being on the junior leadership team, being a language ambassador and supporting new pupils who arrive at the school. Through these experiences, pupils build up their teamwork skills and resilience.
What the school should improve
- In some areas, staff do not check as well as they could whether pupils have gaps in their learning. As a result, not all pupils keep up with everything that is taught. The school needs to ensure that staff get the support and guidance they need to assess learning effectively in all subjects, so that pupils make the best possible progress.
