What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 21 January 2025
Pupils enjoy coming to this inclusive and welcoming school. Relationships between staff and pupils are strong. The school ensures that pupils can share any worries and concerns they might have. This helps to keep pupils safe. Pupils know that any concerns that they might have will be taken seriously and that they are well looked after. Behaviour is calm and positive, with pupils following routines and engaging well in lessons. Staff know pupils well and create a supportive environment, where pupils feel valued and encouraged to succeed. All staff have high expectations of pupils, including pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Pupils rise to these high expectations and try hard with their learning. They achieve well. Pupils benefit from a range of experiences that enrich the curriculum and help to prepare them for life in modern Britain. This includes taking part in three residentials during their time at school, as well as an annual performance and a trip to the Houses of Parliament for the school council. Clubs are wide ranging and varied.
What the school should improve
- In some subjects, teachers do not use assessment effectively to check pupils understanding and inform future learning. This means that pupils have gaps in their knowledge which are not addressed consistently. The school should support teachers to use assessment effectively, so that pupils' gaps in knowledge are quickly identified and addressed.
- The tasks that teachers provide for pupils with SEND are not adapted consistently well to enable these pupils to learn the curriculum fluently. This means that some pupils become over reliant on the support that they receive from adults. The school should train staff to adapt tasks for pupils with SEND more consistently, so that these pupils learn the curriculum with greater independence.
