What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 10 July 2024
Pupils are happy to attend this school. The school's values of respect, responsibility and resilience underpin the work that goes on here each day. Pupils benefit from the kind and caring relationships that they have with staff and each other. Pupils behave very well. They are fully aware of the rewards for, and consequences of, the choices that they make. Children in the Reception Year quickly absorb the routines and rules that help them to learn well in school. There is a calm and orderly atmosphere in and around the place, both in lessons and at playtimes. The school is ambitious for pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Pupils are keen to learn and they make the most of the learning opportunities afforded to them. Typically, pupils achieve well. The school facilitates clubs and activities to help develop pupils' talents and interests. For example, pupils can participate in drama, judo and sports clubs. They enjoy the educational visits linked to their studies that bring learning to life. For example, older pupils particularly enjoyed the residential trip that supported them to develop their teamwork skills. Pupils are well prepared for the next stage in their educational journey.
What the school should improve
- From time to time, a small number of pupils at the early stages of learning to read are not provided with books that are closely matched to the sounds that they know. This means that some pupils do not learn to read fluently and accurately as swiftly as they could. The school should ensure that these pupils practise their reading using books that are well matched to their phonics knowledge.
- In some areas of learning in the early years, the school has not thought carefully enough about the small steps of knowledge and key vocabulary that children should learn. This prevents some children from acquiring the knowledge and vocabulary that they need to build secure foundations for future learning. The school should determine the small steps of knowledge and vocabulary that children should learn and the order in which this should be taught.
