What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 15 February 2023
Pupils enjoy attending this school. They trust the staff to take good care of them. Pupils said that their teachers listen to any worries that they may have and give them any support needed. If bullying happens, leaders deal with it quickly and effectively. This helps pupils to feel safe and happy at school. Pupils are expected to follow the school's 'golden rules'. These rules encourage pupils to be kind and gentle, as well as to work hard. Leaders focus on rewarding pupils' positive behaviour. For example, pupils who have consistently followed the 'golden rules' during the week enjoy reward time on a Friday. Pupils spoke positively about how these rewards encourage them to behave well. Leaders are determined that all pupils will succeed, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Leaders provide a wealth of opportunities to enrich the curriculum. For example, Year 2 pupils recently took part in a drumming workshop. Pupils also enjoy visits to local landmarks and residential trips. Leaders ensure that pupils learn to be responsible citizens. Pupils participate in events to raise money for charity. These include sponsored runs and cake sales. Older pupils take on positions of responsibility within the school, such as computing monitors and reading ambassadors.
What the school should improve
- In a few subjects in the wider curriculum, leaders have not identified the precise knowledge that pupils need to know. This means that some pupils are unable to build on their prior learning as well as they should. Leaders should ensure that all subject leaders provide clarity around the exact knowledge that pupils should learn in each topic. This will ensure that pupils' learning builds securely over time.
- Staff do not deliver some aspects of the phonics programme as leaders intend. This means that some pupils do not develop their phonics knowledge as quickly as they should. Leaders should ensure that staff receive the support that they need to deliver the phonics programme consistently well.
