What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 8 July 2025
Rush Green is an extraordinary place. It offers a highly inclusive environment and places no limits on what pupils can achieve. The school's motto of 'Strive to succeed' is fully realised in all its work. The school expertly breaks down barriers to enable all pupils to learn very well, regardless of their background. Pupils remember new knowledge in detail thanks to the school's innovative curriculum and expert teaching staff. High aspirations begin from early years, where children receive remarkable learning experiences, including learning to read musical notation in the Reception Year. Across the school, pupils achieve exceptionally well, including in national assessments. Pupils' behaviour and attitudes to learning are exemplary. They work hard, attend very well and show a genuine desire to succeed. Pupils are confident and articulate. They develop the knowledge and skills to become well-rounded individuals. Pupils are ready to make a difference in the community. They are very well prepared for the next stage of their education. The school's work on pupils' personal development is exceptional. The 'Rush Green Promise' includes the deliberate planning of memorable visits and experiences, allowing pupils to connect thoroughly with their learning. Pupils relish taking on leadership opportunities, including roles on the pupil senior leadership team, the school council and as pupil ambassadors.
