What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 8 October 2024

Pupils, staff, parents and carers are proud to be part of this welcoming school. Despite its large size, the school exudes a strong sense of community and togetherness. Building positive relationships is at the centre of all that the school does. It is a place of kindness, where everyone feels listened to and looks out for each other. Pupils are assured that adults deal with their worries in a timely manner, keeping them safe. The school is highly committed to building bright futures for all pupils. Pupils recognise this and have high aspirations for themselves. They are passionate about discovering new things. Pupils keenly participate in learning, inside the classroom and outdoors. They display high levels of self-discipline and positive learning behaviours. In the early years, children learn to play and cooperate socially with others. The school's provision for pupils' personal development is exemplary. Pupils value the deep memories that the school's extensive enrichment opportunities provide. Pupils learn through highly coordinated visits to the theatre, stately homes and geographical field trips. Parents are extremely positive about the school. Many rightly agree that pupils are well prepared for the next phase of education in the school and beyond. By the end of key stage 2, pupils achieve very well.
