What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 18 July 2023
Children, along with parents and carers, arrive with smiles on their faces at this school. Staff greet them warmly. Children are keen to see their friends and to take part in all the exciting learning opportunities that are set out. Staff know all the children well. They interact with them meaningfully. Through modelling and carefully chosen questioning, staff manage to develop children's curiosity and deepen their learning. Staff have extremely high expectations for all children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). They make sure that every child meets their potential. All children are empowered to succeed. Staff use a range of communication methods and strategies to enable children to follow school rules. In every classroom, children are highly motivated. They show eagerness to join in all the learning activities. The majority of children share and cooperate well. Children demonstrate high levels of self-control and respect for others. Even when something goes wrong or is difficult, children do not give up. Experiences such as storytelling, story acting, woodwork and the use of the school library are regularly provided for all children. A recent whole-school visit to the zoo, linked with their arts festival, was enjoyed by all.
