What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 12 March 2024

Pupils live and breathe the school's nine values which include respect, determination and kindness. Those pupils who receive the 'Pride of Prince Edward' award for demonstrating the school's values take great joy in wearing their badge. In lessons pupils are focussed and attentive. They have very positive attitudes to their learning. They move around school calmly. Pupils respond well to the high expectations of staff and follow well-established routines. They know that they are all treated with fairness. They demonstrate courtesy and respect and they are warmly welcoming of visitors. Strong and positive relationships form the bedrock of pupils' experience at school. Because of this, they are happy and feel safe at school. Leaders have high expectations of pupils. Pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), follow an ambitious curriculum that matches the scope of what is expected nationally. Pupils work hard and produce work of a good quality in different curriculum subjects.

What the school should improve

  • In some curriculum subjects, assessment systems to track how well pupils understand their learning are not fully developed. This means that the school does not have a consistent picture of how well pupils remember what they have learned in all curriculum subjects. The school should ensure that assessment information is used consistently to accurately check what pupils know and need to learn next, in all curriculum subjects, to inform future curriculum planning.
  • While the school has designed a precise and well-sequenced curriculum, sometimes, the delivery of the curriculum for pupils with SEND is not precisely matched to their learning needs. This means that occasionally, some pupils do not learn as well as they could. Leaders should ensure that staff receive training on appropriate pedagogical and activity choices so that the delivery of the curriculum is consistently effective for all pupils.
