What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 26 June 2024
Pupils enjoy coming to this school. Parents and carers describe the school as having a 'village feel'. The school is a welcoming and friendly place. Pupils are polite and generally show positive attitudes to their learning. The school works hard to ensure that all pupils are well prepared for the next stage of their education, both socially and academically. Pupils know and understand the school's values of being 'ready, resilient and responsible'. Staff and pupils use these values to guide their interactions, and, as a result, pupils learn well together. Pupils feel safe and know that they can talk to any of their trusted adults should they have any concerns. Provision for pupils' wider personal development has been carefully considered. The school ensures that all pupils can access the opportunities on offer. Pupils take part in a multitude of sports events, drama and singing. They also learn about the importance of keeping safe. For example, a well-known national charity gives pupils a presentation on water safety. Leaders have designed an ambitious curriculum that supports all pupils well, including pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). The school is highly inclusive and all pupils follow the school's ambitious curriculum. Staff have high aspirations for what pupils can achieve.
What the school should improve
- A significant proportion of pupils do not attend school regularly. As a result, these pupils miss valuable learning time. The school should enhance its strategies to improve attendance by working closely with parents and implementing targeted interventions.
- At times, teaching is not consistently and precisely focused on addressing gaps in pupils' learning. Consequently, some pupils do not achieve as well as they could. To secure further improvements in pupils' outcomes, the school should continue to sharpen its oversight of teaching practices, including any extra help with learning that is provided. It should ensure that teaching consistently enables pupils to learn well, and, where necessary, targeted support is provided to address any learning gaps.
