What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 26 March 2024

Inclusion is highly valued by all here. Pupils speak proudly about making sure everyone is appreciated for who they are. They treat each other with respect and explain that this is important. Supported by the school's strong Catholic ethos, pupils develop a secure understanding of tolerance. The school's mission statement of 'Let all you do be done with love' is well understood. Both pupils and staff state that all they do is based on this. It is the cornerstone of the school's decision-making, along with their core vision of 'children first'. During social times, it is evident that pupils make sure everyone is included in games. These are joyful occasions, where pupils happily engage in activities. A culture of mutual respect is embedded throughout the school. This begins in Reception, where children gleefully take turns and share the equipment. Pupils achieve well. The curriculum is designed so all pupils can access the learning and build on what they already know. Pupils are keen to discuss their learning and are eager to celebrate the achievements of their peers as well as their own.

What the school should improve

  • The curriculum is not as precisely defined in a few subjects as it is elsewhere. This means that, in these subjects, pupils are not always learning as deeply as they could. The school should continue to refine the curriculum and support leaders in these areas, so that the curriculum is consistently effective across the whole curriculum.
