What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 15 October 2024
The motto 'dream big, aim high and make a difference' is enacted by the whole school community. Pupils are happy at school and take pride in their achievements. They are well cared for by the school staff, who help them if they ever have any worries. This means that pupils feel safe and settled in their school environment. They arrive at school enthusiastic for the day ahead. Staff have high expectations for pupils. Pupils live up to these expectations. They follow the school rules and work hard in lessons, achieving well in much of their learning. During social times, pupils from different year groups interact well together, developing positive and supportive relationships. Pupils participate in a range of fun activities during breaktimes. These include football, colouring and playing on the popular adventure playground. Pupils enjoy their opportunities to learn about the world beyond Potley Hill. These include residential trips and meeting visitors, who help pupils to make links with their learning beyond school. Pupils benefit from the part they play in community events, such as litter picking and Christmas events at the local church. The annual careers day allows pupils to build aspirations for their future. Pupils enjoy the after-school activities on offer, including the popular space club.
What the school should improve
- In a few foundation subjects, the curriculum does not clearly identify the key knowledge and skills that pupils need to learn. This means that pupils do not always learn as well as they should. The school should continue to develop a clearly sequenced curriculum in all subjects, which allows pupils to be well prepared for their next educational steps.
- In early years, activities do not always have a clear learning focus. This means that children do not make the most of them to consolidate and deepen their learning. The school should ensure that all activities support children with their learning.
