What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 5 December 2023

Pupils enjoy coming to school. The attendance of pupils is good. Staff expectations of behaviour are high, and pupils meet these expectations. Pupils are welcoming to visitors and are proud to talk about how good their school is. All staff work hard to meet the needs of every child, however diverse those needs are. This is a caring, nurturing and inclusive school. Parents' responses to the Ofsted online questionnaire were overwhelmingly positive. Expectations of what pupils can achieve are high. Curriculums are well planned to help pupils reach these expectations. Leaders ensure that pupils have lots of opportunities to learn more about the world in which they live. Visitors come into school, such as police officers, fire fighters and dentists, to help pupils learn about people who help them and how to look after themselves and others. The youngest children willingly help their friends with buttons when getting changed independently for physical education lessons.

What the school should improve

  • There are some occasions where the activities that pupils are set in lessons do not enable them to learn the intended knowledge as well as they could. The school should work with staff to enhance the implementation of the curriculum further so that the tasks pupils experience help them to learn consistently well.
  • On occasion, the needs of some pupils with more complex needs are not met as well as they could be. The school should continue to build the expertise of staff and explore further support strategies so that the needs of these pupils are better met over time.
