What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 21 January 2025

This is a nurturing and highly inclusive school. Pupils are keen to come to school. They enjoy their learning. Parents and carers speak highly of the school and recognise the strong pastoral care provided. The school is community driven and has a welcoming ethos. Pupils are happy here and find it a warm and inviting place to learn. Pupils are safe. Conduct around the school site is calm and pupils are courteous. Many pupils take on leadership responsibilities where they help and mentor each other. These include English as an additional language ambassadors, reading mentors, digital leaders, membership on the school council and writing for the school magazine. The school is quick to identify opportunities and initiatives that will develop pupils' interests and foster their talents. Pupils benefit from a strong personal development programme and gain valuable life experiences. The school hosts a variety of speakers and workshops for pupils, alongside a strong offering of clubs. These include debating, drama and football. Staff and parents also come together for a popular book club. The school has high expectations for the achievement of pupils, including those with special educational needs/and or disabilities (SEND). Pupils study a broad and enriched curriculum. Typically, pupils achieve in line with these high expectations.

What the school should improve

  • High expectations for writing are not fully embedded across subjects. This means that some pupils do not achieve as well as they could in their writing. The school should ensure that they routinely provide pupils with opportunities to develop their writing in line with the same high standards across the curriculum.
