What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 29 February 2024
Pupils are happy and flourish at this school. They discover and develop new talents, such as performing high-quality musical productions for their parents and carers. Pupils are keen to help others. For example, they take part in a range of fundraising activities, including supporting a school that they are linked with in Tanzania. Pupils embrace and celebrate diversity. They readily accept challenges to broaden their horizons and to make new friends. Children quickly settle in the early years. They are exceptionally well supported by older pupils, especially at breaktimes. Pupils' behaviour is exemplary. They demonstrate polite and mature attitudes towards each other and adults. Pupils are proud of their many leadership roles. These roles enhance the calm and purposeful atmosphere evident at the school. For example, the junior leadership team make sensible and astute suggestions that help to improve the school further. The school has high expectations of pupils' achievement. It ensures that pupils receive any additional support that they need to access the curriculum. This is especially true for pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Pupils' passion for learning is palpable. They achieve well in most subjects, including in reading.
What the school should improve
- In a small number of subjects, pupils do not have enough opportunity to use and apply what they already know in the work that they produce. This prevents some pupils from deepening their knowledge over time. The school should ensure that teachers support pupils to build on what they have learned previously across different aspects of the curriculum.
