What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 4 March 2025

Pupils speak highly of their school. They are proud to attend. Absence is rare. The school has a special, family feel that makes pupils feel safe and secure. Pupils enjoy warm relationships with staff. They know that staff have their best interests at heart and are there to support them if need be. The school has great aspirations for every pupil. These goals are encapsulated by its 'STRIDE' principles. Through 'STRIDE', the school aims for pupils to speak well, think deeply, read widely, be inspired and determined, and embrace difference. This approach leads to pupils achieving well. Pupils are polite and friendly. Staff model the behaviours and attitudes that they want pupils to adopt. Through the 'SEAGRAVE' code, staff teach pupils what it means to be a good learner. Pupils understand that 'showing SEAGRAVE' means having focused, respectful attitudes to learning. Most pupils display these learning behaviours, although some reminders are needed occasionally to help pupils listen and concentrate. In their daily 'Learnful' time, pupils work on their mental fitness and self-regulation. They build their understanding of emotions and learn strategies to cope with different feelings. Pupils relish these sessions and are keen to use the techniques they are taught.

What the school should improve

  • In some subjects, the school has not identified the crucial curriculum content that staff need to revisit and help pupils remember. As a result, some pupils do not have a secure understanding of the key prior learning that they need to retain and use again. The school should ensure that the most important knowledge is identified in all areas of the curriculum and that there are strategies in place to enable pupils to recall it securely over the long term.
  • At times, staff do not check pupils' learning closely enough. Occasionally, staff miss pupils' mistakes, and pupils then sometimes repeat these errors. This means that some pupils do not learn the curriculum as well as they could. The school should ensure that pupils' misconceptions are identified and resolved swiftly.
