What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 11 June 2024
Pepper Hill is full of happy pupils. They want to come to school because they enjoy their learning and look forward to seeing their friends and caring adults. The breakfast club offers a fun and nutritious start to the school day for those pupils who need it. There are high expectations set for children's behaviour and learning through the well- known 'PROUD' values. These expectations begin right from the moment children enter the school in Nursery and Reception. Across the school, pupils live up to these high expectations and behave extremely well. In lessons, pupils listen carefully to their teachers and are enthusiastic and attentive learners. At breaktimes and lunchtimes, they enjoy playing with their friends. Relationships between pupils and staff are strong because they are rooted in kindness and respect. Pupils know that their caring adults will help them if they have any worries. The school communicates well with families, and this means that they are fully informed about what and how well their children are learning. Parents and carers value feeling part of the school community and appreciate being actively involved in their child's learning. The recent family 'challenge homework' attracted a high number of creative entries.
What the school should improve
- In a few of the wider curriculum subjects, assessment is not used with precision to check what pupils know and remember. This means that, in these subjects, pupils are not always prepared for their new learning as well as they could be. The school should ensure that assessment information allows teachers to address gaps and misconceptions in pupils' learning swiftly and successfully across the entire curriculum.
