What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 22 November 2022

This school is a friendly and nurturing place to learn. Pupils are kind and considerate towards each other. Pupils behave well in lessons and when moving around the school. Pupils are happy here. Bullying rarely happens in this school. However, pupils do understand what bullying is. Teachers take swift action if there are any early signs of unkind behaviour. Warm relationships between pupils and staff permeate the school. Pupils know who to talk to if they are worried. They know they will be listened to, and as a result feel safe. Pupils are confident when talking about their learning. They take pride in their achievements. Pupils help the local community. They wrote letters to their local council suggesting ways to use a piece of donated land as a well-being area. Pupils are involved in making decisions for their school. They vote to elect their classmates to positions of leadership, such as members of the school council. Leaders have high expectations for what pupils can achieve. Leaders make sure that pupils learn the curriculum well. Parents and carers appreciate the warm and welcoming atmosphere.

What the school should improve

  • In some subjects, concepts are not routinely taught in a logical order. This means that some pupils cannot securely link new knowledge to what they already know. Leaders need to ensure they have sequenced the curriculum in all subjects so that pupils build the knowledge they need over time.
