What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 1 May 2024

Netley makes a significant difference to pupils and their families. It is a haven within the community where everyone is valued and well looked after. Pupils are excellent ambassadors. They uphold the school's values regularly and their attitudes to learning are exceptional. They share the belief that behaving well and respecting others makes the world a better place. Pupils demonstrate kindness and compassion for others. This contributes to the school's highly inclusive ethos. The school sets high expectations for all pupils to achieve the very best outcomes. From whatever their individual starting points, pupils do well in their learning. Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are extremely well supported. Throughout the school, pupils work hard, listen carefully and are proud of their achievements. Parents and carers build positive and trusting partnerships with staff. Together they form a strong team that puts pupils' learning and well-being at the centre of everything that happens. Staff help everyone to experience a broad and rich set of experiences, including parents. For example, staff routinely plan visits to London theatres and national music and arts academies. The school has become a 'hub' in the local area. Pupils and parents particularly like events which bring the community together and celebrate diversity. The whole-school Iftar and the recent Easter bonnet parade are shining examples of this.

What the school should improve

  • In a few subjects in Years 1 to 6, opportunities for pupils to consolidate and deepen their learning are still developing. In these subjects, some pupils' knowledge is not as secure as it could be. Sometimes, pupils do not remember the important subject content that they need for future learning. The school should continue its work to refine the curriculum in these subjects so that pupils build their knowledge securely.
