What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 24 April 2024
Pupils are happy to attend this friendly school where everyone is welcome. Caring relationships between staff and pupils ensure that there is always someone for pupils to talk to. This helps pupils to feel safe and happy. Pupils are enthusiastic about their learning. They try their best to live up to the high expectations that the school sets for their achievement. As a result, pupils, including those with special needs and/or disabilities (SEND), achieve well. Pupils throughout school, including those in the Reception Year, understand the school rules. They proudly follow the school's values to be respectful, proud and safe. This helps the school to be a calm place where pupils are valued and treated equally. A range of opportunities are on offer to support pupils' wider development. After- school activities such as computing and art club, as well as a singing performance club, allow pupils to develop their talents and interests. Pupils appreciate the opportunities to take part in local tournaments such as dodgeball and boys' and girls' football. They are proud to represent their school in these events.
What the school should improve
- In a very small minority of subjects, the school has not ensured that the small steps of knowledge are clearly identified and sequenced in order for pupils to build logically on what they already know. The school should ensure that these subject curriculums are further refined so that staff are clear about the essential knowledge that pupils should learn and the order in which to learn it.
