What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 28 March 2023

There is a wonderful atmosphere at Oatlands where happy pupils enjoy school and their learning. The school's values are intrinsic to everyday life. Each month, pupils consider a different value to live out and celebrate. Leaders are passionate about nurturing pupils to be kind to each other and help those in need. The family ethos ensures that pupils feel that they belong and are safe. Friendship is important to pupils. They are taught to be role models and act responsibly. Bullying is not a worry and pupils know that adults are always on hand to help. At mealtimes, Year 2 'lunch leaders' eagerly teach younger children table manners and social skills. Academically, many pupils thrive and exceed national curriculum expectations in reading and mathematics. Leaders are establishing higher behaviour standards for everyone through consistent routines and systems. Pupils know they must work hard and try their best. Leaders actively promote ways for pupils to develop widely and live healthy lifestyles. Highlights include fitness sessions where pupils energetically drum to music, alongside yoga classes. Pupils are fortunate to have excellent curriculum facilities and spacious outdoor grounds. They love going on trips which open their eyes to modern Britain.

What the school should improve

  • Sometimes, the work set for pupils does not successfully enable them to practise the intended component knowledge. This has led to some pupils not securely learning the curriculum and being academically ready for key stage 2. Leaders need to continue with developing staff's expertise in curriculum implementation.
  • Leaders recognise that there remain some occasional inconsistencies in the setting of high behaviour expectations for all pupils. This has led to the behaviour of some pupils having a negative impact upon learning. Leaders need to ensure that staff fully implement the school's behaviour systems and application of routines, so all pupils can learn and achieve their very best.
