What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 17 December 2024

Pupils are excited to come to school each day. They are greeted by kind and supportive staff. Pupils rightly trust staff and know that they can turn to adults to ask for help or share a worry. This school is a welcoming community with a nurturing ethos. The school's values and rules, created with children's best interests in mind, run through all interactions. Pupils become responsible, caring and courageous as they are supported to develop a lifelong love of learning in readiness for their next stage. Excellent leadership has secured tangible improvements across many aspects of school life. Staff have high expectations of what pupils can, and should, achieve. Pupils, including the youngest children in Nursery and Reception, live up to these. They achieve very well. This includes pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities, who have precise and highly effective support that means they engage well in learning and with the wide range of opportunities on offer. Disadvantaged pupils are well represented in every aspect of school life, such as leadership as members of the 'eco-council', where pupil leaders provide feedback to classes about how to reduce their impact on the environment.
