What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 5 December 2023
The school is a welcoming place to be. Pupils enjoy coming to school and live up to the very high expectations that adults have for them. The positive culture is built on a shared commitment to the school's values of 'Thrive, Aspire, Achieve'. Pupils behave well throughout the school. They follow the rules of 'be ready, be respectful, be safe'. Pupils have an admirable attitude towards education. They are attentive in lessons, respect their teachers and engage positively with learning. Relationships between adults and pupils are strong and caring. Pupils are happy and feel safe. The school prioritises pupils' pastoral support. Pupils know that there are always adults who can help them with their mental health and well-being if they have a problem or concern. The school is committed to broadening pupils' horizons and aspirations. The 'BET Guarantee' provides a variety of opportunities to support learning about life in modern Britain and to develop pupils' interests. This includes a well-planned programme of trips and visitors to the school. A recent example, which made an impression on pupils, was their visit to a Victorian classroom as part of their trip to a local museum.
What the school should improve
- In some foundation subjects, assessment is less well developed than in the rest of the school. Consequently, staff are less clear about what pupils have learned and what they need to learn next. The school should ensure that checks on learning consistently enable teachers to identify and address gaps in pupils' learning across the curriculum.
- In the nursery, learning activities do not always match the intended curriculum well enough. This means that children do not learn and develop as well as they could. The school should ensure that staff have the knowledge and expertise to deliver the school's curriculum consistently well across all parts of the early years provision.
