What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 3 December 2024

Pupils enjoy learning at Newbury Park. They understand and embody the school's values of compassion, curiosity, creativity and courage. Pupils feel safe and are kept safe at school. Staff build strong relationships with pupils. Pupils feel comfortable at school and thrive as a result. The school has high expectations of all pupils. This starts in the early years, where activities are carefully designed to ensure that pupils learn the curriculum well. Support for pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) is very effective. Most pupils work hard and achieve highly, including in national assessments. The school teaches pupils to be 'ready, respectful and safe'. As a result, pupils typically behave well and show respect to adults and their peers. From the early years, they play well together, take turns and share. Bullying is rare and quickly resolved if it happens. Pupils are confident to talk to staff about any concerns that they may have. The school provides pupils with a wide range of leadership opportunities. These include supporting each other as peer mentors, or by taking on a range of ambassador roles. Pupils are excited to take part in 'golden time' every Friday, where they choose from a variety of enrichment activities that help broaden their horizons.

What the school should improve

  • Assessment is not used consistently to check pupils' understanding across the curriculum. As a result, gaps develop in some pupils' knowledge. The school should ensure that support is provided to ensure assessment is used well to identify and address any gaps and misconceptions in pupils' knowledge.
  • Opportunities to nurture, develop and stretch pupils' talents and interests are not well developed. Pupils do not always make good use of the opportunities on offer. The school should ensure that opportunities to stretch and develop pupils' talents and interests are well considered.
