What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 14 September 2022
Pupils like their school very much. They enjoy learning and playing with their friends. Pupils think that their teachers are kind and that they support them when they need help. Pupils feel safe. This is because their teachers care passionately about pupils' well-being. If a pupil has a concern, there is always someone to talk to. Pupils work well in lessons. They participate enthusiastically and listen carefully to their teachers and to each other. They behave positively around the school and feel safe. Pupils say that teachers will not tolerate any bullying. Should it happen, teachers deal with it swiftly. Pupils are respectful to others. They welcome those who are different from them. They have adopted positive values. Their confident approach to their work reflects the school's vision that 'everything is possible'. When things go wrong, their teachers help them to make amends. They have many opportunities to develop their sporting skills and participate in competitions. They take part in activities which help them to become active citizens and to build a wider knowledge of the world around them. They visit places of worship, watch pantomimes, learn about their local community and participate in charity events.
What the school should improve
- In some areas of the curriculum, pupils do not remember some important knowledge as well as they might. This is because teachers do not ensure they have regular practice of what they have previously learned. Leaders must ensure that all teachers organise more opportunities for pupils to practise previously learned knowledge so that they know more and remember more over time.
- Some teachers do not systematically identify mistakes, misconceptions and gaps in pupils' knowledge. As a result, some pupils continue to make the same mistakes and misunderstand some knowledge. Leaders must ensure that all teachers know how to identify and address errors and gaps in knowledge so that all pupils learn more over time.
