What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 17 December 2024

Pupils flourish at Minet Junior School. They benefit from highly positive experiences, such as the opportunities for debating and discussion that the school promotes. The school has the highest expectations for all pupils. This helps pupils to achieve very well from their starting points. Pupils are very well prepared for the next stage of their education. They enjoy many opportunities to celebrate who they are and to be successful, for example by attending a junior citizenship day at a local university. Pupils have trusting relationships with each other and with staff. They feel safe. Bullying is not tolerated, and if it happens, pupils are confident that staff will deal with it quickly and fairly. Behaviour is exemplary. Pupils respond well to clear and consistently applied routines. They value the acknowledgement and praise they receive for their hard work and achievements. As a result, pupils are resilient to setbacks. Staff encourage pupils to take on responsibilities. For example, they can choose to be a playground leader, house captain or to play a role on the student council. Pupils appreciate the wide range of extra-curricular activities they can attend. These include many sports and other clubs, such as archery, dodgeball and singing in the choir.
