Sacred Heart Catholic Primary School

What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 18 June 2024

This is a caring and nurturing school with the community at its heart. Every pupil has the opportunity to thrive here. Across subjects, pupils achieve highly. This includes in reading, writing and mathematics, where their outcomes in national assessments are very strong. Leaders and staff share a vision that puts the pupils at the forefront of everything that they do. Warm relationships between staff and pupils permeate the school. Pupils demonstrate excellent behaviour throughout the school. Children in early years take turns and move calmly between different activities. Older pupils are keen to learn in their lessons and respond quickly to teachers' instructions. The school's values thread through school life. Pupils show their respect for each other; they understand and cherish their differences. They feel safe at school and know that all adults would help them if they had any worries. The school offers an exceptional range of clubs and opportunities. Pupils appreciate the wide choice available, including opportunities to play different sports, cook, garden, or learn a musical instrument. Pupil voice is integrated into every aspect of school life. They are proud to make a positive impact on their school and local community. For example, the eco-warriors have chosen to grow herbs, which they will dry and sell at a summer event.
