What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 7 March 2023
Pupils are proud of their school and confidently talk about their learning experiences. Leaders have high aspirations for all pupils and provide an ambitious curriculum. Teachers provide pupils with support and challenge. Leaders make sure that everyone feels valued and respected. They plan enrichment activities to enhance the curriculum. For instance, pupils visited the local country park to learn about science and art. They also enjoy visiting museums in London. Leaders provide exceptional opportunities for pupils' personal development. Throughout school life, pupils take on positions of responsibility. Pupils vote for their school's 'members of parliament'. The school's well-being champions work closely with leaders to help others. Pupils spoke about their leadership roles and the positive impact they have on the school community. The school has high expectations of all pupils. Leaders teach pupils the values and behaviours expected of them. Behaviour in lessons is calm, and pupils are kept safe here. Pupils are proud of the 'habit' badges they earn through displaying positive behaviours. Teachers are quick to deal with any bullying or behaviour issues.
What the school should improve
- Leaders' new curriculum plans in some subjects are not fully implemented. This leads to gaps in pupils' knowledge and understanding. Leaders should ensure that all new curriculum planning is fully implemented, so that pupils can build on subject-specific skills consistently.
