What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 1 October 2024
Pupils are happy at this school. They enjoy learning and playing together. Pupils live up to the school's expectation: 'Be your best. Expect the best. Succeed together.' They achieve the aims of the curriculum. In lessons, pupils typically work hard and focus on their learning. When facing tricky aspects of the curriculum, pupils encourage and celebrate the success of their peers. On the playground and when moving around the school, pupils are kind and courteous. Pupils thrive in the school's welcoming ethos. They develop a sense of self-worth and are sensitive to the needs of others. This is beneficial for the many pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Those who access support for physical disabilities play an active part in the school community. These pupils are well supported to learn the full curriculum at school. Pupils also take responsibility to care for others. For example, older pupils on the playground support the children in the early years. The school prepares pupils well for life in the wider world. Starting at an early age, pupils consider potential career options through the well-established careers education programme at the school. Pupils also understand fundamental British values such as democracy.
What the school should improve
- Some pupils with SEND have gaps in their learning in some areas of the curriculum that the school is currently developing plans to address. Where this is the case, these pupils do not learn the breadth of the curriculum as well as they could. The school needs to continue to consider how pupils will be supported to learn the knowledge they need across the curriculum.
