What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 17 December 2024
This is a caring and welcoming school that puts pupils at the heart of all it does. Pupils are polite and friendly. They move safely around the school. The large outside space is well managed. Pupils engage in a range of activities, and they play well together across year groups. Playtimes are calm and purposeful. Pupils are proud of their leadership roles and the contribution they make. Some help the site manager to repair resources and develop the 'mud world' play area. Others help by delivering messages around the school. Pupils take care of their environment. For example, the junior leadership team raises money to develop and improve the equipment on the playground. Pupils feel happy at school. They follow the behaviour values of being 'responsible, respectful and safe'. All pupils know there are trusted adults in school to whom they can talk if they have any worries or concerns. The school has high expectations of all pupils. Staff encourage pupils to engage in their work and answer questions. Pupils are keen to share their ideas. They show high levels of motivation. They work hard, and most pupils achieve well.
What the school should improve
- In some subjects, the school does not have an accurate understanding of what pupils know and remember. This means that, at times, gaps in pupils' knowledge go unaddressed, and pupils do not learn the curriculum as intended. The school should ensure that assessment strategies accurately identify any gaps that pupils have, and that this information is used to make adaptations to the curriculum to address these gaps.
