What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 3 June 2025
The school encourages pupils and staff to 'do everything in love' and this is what happens. Pupils are happy at this warm and welcoming school. Staff work together to provide a nurturing environment. They take time to get to know their pupils and provide support that meets pupils' individual needs. Pupils keenly attend each day. Expectations for pupils' achievement and behaviour are typically high. Pupils try hard to meet these throughout the day. Behaviour in class is calm and orderly. Learning proceeds with little disruption. Pupils are keen to succeed, and they typically achieve well. Pupils play enthusiastically at lunchtimes. They benefit from the wide range of activities on offer. Older pupils take ownership of these by planning, organising and running lunchtime clubs. These give the pupil leaders a sense of responsibility, while younger pupils revel in the chance to take part in activities such as tennis, chess and crafts. Exciting trips and visits support pupils to develop their knowledge of the wider world. Pupils learn to respect differences through, for example, visiting different places of worship. Residential trips enable pupils to develop their independence and try new and adventurous activities.
What the school should improve
- On occasions, teachers do not check pupils' understanding systematically in lessons. This means misconceptions or chances to move pupils' learning on can be missed. The school needs to support teachers to respond and adapt their teaching in lessons.
- In the early writing curriculum, the school does not set consistent expectations of how pupils should write. Basic grammatical and spelling errors can go unchecked. As a result, pupils do not consistently write accurately and fluently. The school should set clear expectations about how pupils should write and present their work across the early years and key stage 1.
