What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 17 December 2024

Pupils live the school values of 'love, courage and friendship'. This is because the school's curriculum is built on these values. If anyone falls short of the high expectations at any time, there is plenty of support available to get these pupils back on track. As a result, the school is a vibrant and harmonious community, where pupils love learning and enjoy coming to school. The school has built very positive relationships with pupils and their families. The school has high expectations for what pupils can achieve. In the early years, the curriculum enables children to master the knowledge and skills that they need for future learning. They are well prepared for Year 1 and beyond. Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) achieve well. They receive high-quality support. Across the school, pupils learn well and are becoming confident learners, including those who are disadvantaged. Staff help pupils to successfully manage their own feelings and behaviour. Adults apply the school's expectations about behaviour consistently well. Pupils rise to these expectations and treat each other with kindness and respect. Pupils behave exceptionally well and have positive attitudes to their learning. Pupils' attendance is high. They actively partake in a wide range of academic and sporting clubs and activities.

What the school should improve

  • On occasions, errors in pupils' understanding are not picked up and addressed fully in a very small number of subjects, for instance science. This means that, over time, some misconceptions and misunderstandings can persist. The school should take steps to further strengthen how these subjects are taught and led so that any difficulties pupils may face are consistently addressed, resulting in all pupils knowing and remembering the content of the curriculum.
