What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 28 January 2025
The school is a happy, vibrant and safe place. Pupils develop confidence through their strong and respectful relationships with the staff. The school strives hard to understand the needs of the pupils to ensure that they are supported well. Pupils know there is always someone to talk to if they have any worries. Staff ensure that pupils are at the heart of everything they do. From the early years, children learn to work independently and be kind to others. Pupils embody the school's mission statement of 'we take pride, we care, we are successful'. The school has high expectations for pupils' behaviour and achievements. As a result, pupils achieve well and behave positively. Pupils take pride in their work and their school. Pupils play together happily and show kindness to each other. They take on leadership roles with enthusiasm, such as distributing snacks, being door monitors and giving out lunchtime bands. Through these opportunities and others, pupils learn what it means to be thoughtful responsible members of their community. Pupils appreciate the broad range of wider activities, including visiting a cinema, experiencing live theatre and travelling on a double-decker bus.
What the school should improve
- In a few foundation subjects, recent curriculum developments are still underway and not embedded fully. As a result, pupils do not always acquire the depth of knowledge that they need securely and consistently. The school should evaluate the curriculum changes carefully to ensure that pupils archive well across all subjects.
