What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 7 January 2025
This is a school where every child is welcomed and celebrated. Pupils here are friendly and caring. They have warm relationships with adults in the school. This helps them to feel happy and safe. The school fosters an inclusive environment that is aspirational for the achievement of all. It has high expectations of what pupils can achieve. Pupils live up to these expectations. Typically, they achieve well and are prepared for the next stage of their education. Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are nurtured with compassion and supported well to succeed. Pupils, from the early years to Year 6, engage fully in their lessons. Their positive attitudes mean that there is rarely any disruption to their learning. Pupils conduct themselves sensibly around the school. They rightly trust adults to deal quickly with any concerns that arise. They enjoy earning their 'recognition points' for behaving well and working hard. Pupils benefit from the different clubs on offer. They enjoy local sporting competitions and taking part in neighbourhood choir performances. Pupils talked enthusiastically about visitors who deliver workshops, including drama, road safety and anti-bullying. Pupils take pride in donating to their local foodbank. These experiences add value to pupils' wider development and help to keep them safe in the community.
What the school should improve
- In some subjects, the school has not ensured that pupils have sufficient opportunities to revisit what they have learned previously. This means that some pupils' knowledge does not build securely over time. The school should ensure that teaching is designed to help pupils to remember long term the content that they have been taught.
- The opportunities that the school offers for pupils' enrichment and broader development are variable. This means that pupils do not access a range of activities to develop their talents, skills and independence, or to promote their broader learning of the curriculum. The school should ensure that pupils are provided with a wide variety of well-considered enrichment activities to support their personal development.
