What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 1 November 2022
Many parents and carers value the school because of its promotion of diversity. Leaders encourage pupils to be respectful. Pupils from different backgrounds get on with each other harmoniously. Leaders are ambitious for all their pupils. They offer pupils many interesting experiences during their time at the school. For example, pupils have visited the Globe Theatre, the Bernie Grant Centre and a range of art galleries. Leaders ensure that pupils have many musical opportunities. For example, pupils learn to play the piano, which many pupils excel at playing. The school's approach to behaviour focuses on positivity, which pupils appreciated. Staff regularly award reward points to pupils for good behaviour. This motivates others to strive for the same and to behave sensibly. Teachers ensure that the school is a calm and orderly environment. Pupils show interest in their learning. Teachers help pupils to concentrate in their lessons, which begins early from Nursery. Staff deal with any bullying cases seriously, resolving them swiftly. Pupils are happy and safe here. Leaders consider carefully how best to support pupils who need extra help and guidance, academically and socially. This includes through additional after- school sessions.
What the school should improve
- In a minority of subjects, leaders do not ensure that subject leaders have the expertise to develop staff's knowledge. Leaders should ensure that, in this minority of subjects, subject leaders are trained sufficiently to support non- subject specialist staff.
