What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 19 November 2024
Children are provided with an exceptional start to their education at this school. The school is highly ambitious for children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). This stems from the aspirational curriculum that skilled staff immerse the children in, helping them to achieve extremely well. The school has high expectations of children's behaviour. From the moment children join the two-year-old provision, they learn the importance of taking turns and cooperating. Children do all that they can to meet the high expectations of behaviour that the school has. This helps to create calm and purposeful classrooms, filled with children who feel safe, happy and are keen to learn. Staff support children ably to develop the vocabulary that they need to express their feelings and emotions. This enables children to seek help confidently and support from adults and from one another. Children who need extra help to manage their emotions are supported well by nurturing staff. Children begin to learn how they can help others through acts of charity and kindness. For example, they make Christmas cards for the residents of a local care home and bring in donations for a community food bank.
