What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 14 January 2025
This school is warm and welcoming. Pupils are safe and enjoy coming to school. The school has extremely high aspirations for all pupils across the curriculum. These are generally realised and pupils achieve very well. Pupils are kind and considerate towards each other. They behave well in the classroom and throughout the school. Older pupils have leadership roles within the school. These include sports ambassadors, who organise sports games for younger pupils to enjoy at breaktimes. This is done extremely well. Younger pupils look up to their older peers and appreciate how these experiences help them to develop their skills and interests. The school is committed to ensuring that pupils develop an understanding of risk and safety. Pupils have a clear understanding of healthy and unhealthy relationships. The school engages with external experts to teach the pupils about road safety and water safety. Pupils know how to keep themselves safe online and how to report any concerns. The school supports pupils to be active, responsible citizens effectively. Pupils thoughtfully select charities to support. They organise a variety of activities and events to raise funds for them.
What the school should improve
- Some pupils' understanding of different religions and cultures is not accurate. As a result, pupils are not as prepared for life in a diverse society as they could be. The school should ensure that pupils' understanding of different faiths and cultures is consistently accurate, so that pupils are better prepared for life in modern Britain.
