What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 26 November 2024
Pupils are safe and very happy at this warm, welcoming school. They behave well and have positive, caring relationships with their teachers and other staff. Pupils told the inspector that their classmates are kind and friendly. They get along well, which means that fall outs are rare. The school is highly ambitious for what pupils should learn. Pupils achieve exceptionally well in subjects, such as English and mathematics. For example, last year, all pupils in Year 6 achieved the expected standards in national end of key stage assessments for writing and mathematics. While pupils do not reach the same lofty standards in other subjects, they do still develop a firm body of knowledge across much of the curriculum. Pupils benefit from an excellent range of personal development opportunities. They access a broad programme of extra-curricular clubs and experiences that are constantly refreshed to suit pupils' different interests. Pupils have various opportunities to represent the school in competitions, drama productions and music events. Those with a keen interest in music have access to further tuition to learn instruments, such as the guitar and piano. Pupils take great pride in their numerous roles and responsibilities around school. These range widely, from playground buddies to librarians and digital leaders.
What the school should improve
- Occasionally, the school's assessment strategies do not consistently lead to effective actions that help pupils to learn as well as they could. Consequently, pupils do not address some of their errors and misconceptions. The school should review how it checks what pupils know and can do, ensuring that these checks consistently lead to pupils receiving effective support to strengthen their knowledge and skills.
