What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 22 October 2024
A warm welcome awaits all who walk through the doors of this small but wonderfully inclusive school. Pupils happily come to school due to the positive relationships that they build with friends and nurturing staff. Pupils learn to care for each other and their wider community. Opportunities to raise money for charity help pupils to know the importance of being a good citizen. Pupils learn and play cooperatively together. They learn to share, take turns and help each other feel included. They are keen to let visitors know that they 'love their school'. Pupils feel safe in school because clear and consistent routines help them know what to expect. Pupils learn to be reflective, developing an astute awareness of their own emotions and the impact of their behaviour on others. Staff consistently help pupils to settle any disagreement between them effectively. Pupils are very kind and polite, making the school a calm and orderly place to learn. Pupils enjoy learning because teachers make it memorable. Pupils try hard to achieve the high expectations that staff have of them. A wide range of trips and visits to places such as local farms complement what pupils learn in the classroom. This helps pupils develop a richer understanding of topics and concepts.
What the school should improve
- Staff do not always suitably tailor adaptations to learning to meet the individual needs of pupils with SEND. This means that some pupils do not access the curriculum as well as they could. The school should ensure that teachers have the expertise they need to adapt learning that enables all pupils with SEND to access the curriculum successfully.
- Learning is not always suitably adapted to close gaps in pupils' knowledge and skills. This means some pupils do not learn as well as they should. The school should ensure that all staff have the training that they need to routinely identify and address gaps in pupils' knowledge.
