What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 28 February 2024
Positive and caring relationships are at the heart of this school. Pupils attend happily and regularly. They are greeted warmly each day by staff who put their needs first. This helps pupils to feel safe in school. They say, 'there is always someone to help.' The school is ambitious that pupils achieve well. This includes pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Many curriculum areas have plans that support learning. These now help pupils to make stronger progress. This is evident in high-quality work in books. Staff model the school's high-behaviour expectations consistently. They are excellent role models in how pupils should treat each other. This is evident in how beautifully pupils behave and how kindly they talk about each member of the school community. Mutual respect is commonplace and a praiseworthy feature of the school. Pupils behave well in lessons. They listen carefully to their teachers and engage well with each other to support their learning. This starts in the early years where children show high levels of concentration and cooperate with each other impressively well.
What the school should improve
- Some pupils have reading books that are not well matched to their phonic level. This means that some pupils do not receive enough opportunities to practise what they are being taught in phonics lessons and are not developing fluency in reading quickly enough. The school should ensure that pupils read books which are closely matched to their abilities and that staff monitor this effectively.
