What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 20 April 2022
This school is a happy place to be. Pupils enjoy positive relationships with their teachers and with each other. They look after one another. For example, older pupils take younger ones under their wing, so they settle quickly. If someone is having a bad day, then a peer is there to cheer you up. Pupils behave well in lessons and around school. They pay close attention to their teachers when asked to, and demonstrate the values of the school. Pupils talk about how they are responsible, resilient and kind to one another. Pupils understand what bullying is and are confident to report it if they see it happening. When there is a case of bullying, it is 'nipped in the bud'. Pupils commented that they feel safe and secure at school. They know that staff care for them and have their best interests at heart. Pupils are proud of their leadership roles. They enjoy the additional opportunities to be play leaders, peer mediators and school councillors, to name but a few. The vibrant eco club plays an active part in improving the school environment.
What the school should improve
- Pupils say that occasionally, there is too much chatter in lessons, which prevents them from learning to the best of their abilities. This is particularly the case when some adults do not consistently apply leaders' high expectations. Leaders should ensure that all adults continue to develop pupils' behaviours for learning and apply the policy consistently and effectively.
