What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 6 March 2024

Leaders have developed a warm, caring and welcoming community. They have high expectations for all pupils. Pupils study a broad and balanced curriculum. It aims to develop pupils as active citizens who can apply their learning to the real world. The school is ambitious for all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Pupils respond positively to these expectations. They achieve well in their learning. Pupils, staff and parents and carers are rightly very proud of their school. Leaders have created an environment where pupils are expected to work hard and behave well. Pupils are happy, polite and enjoy learning. They show respect and kindness towards each other and build positive, trusting relationships with staff. Pupils enjoy coming to school. The development of pupils' character is exceptional and central to the whole curriculum. The school's core values of learning, character and community are woven with care through all of the personal development offer. Pupils reflect these values in all that they do. There is a range of opportunities designed for pupils to develop their leadership skills. This includes the 'Smart School Council', whose members identify issues within the school and then establish action groups, such as the green team, eco warriors and play champions.

What the school should improve

  • In a few foundation subjects, the school has not precisely identified the most important knowledge pupils need to learn and build on. This means that the curriculum is not enabling pupils to deepen their understanding as securely as they could. The school needs to continue their work on curriculum development so that all subjects identify the component knowledge that pupils are expected to acquire and recall at each stage of learning.
