What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 5 November 2024

Pupils enjoy coming to this friendly, welcoming school. They understand how the school values 'motivate' them and help them to believe in themselves. The school has high expectations for what all pupils can achieve. Most pupils meet these expectations. They show positive attitudes, work hard and achieve well in most subjects. The school has clear systems in place to promote positive behaviour. This starts in Nursery where children listen carefully and respond well to the routines that are in place. Across the school, pupils are polite and well mannered. Most understand and follow the school rules well. There is a calm and purposeful atmosphere in and outside the classroom. Pupils feel safe and cared for. Relationships between pupils and adults are warm and respectful. Pupils trust adults to listen and help them with any worries or concerns that may arise. Pupils appreciate taking part in a range of trips, such as visits to a local activity centre. They are eager to take on leadership responsibilities, which include being house captains and becoming members of the 'crew'. They talk about how these roles help them to build a school community and enable them to lead discussions about topics, such as Remembrance Day.

What the school should improve

  • In some subjects, assessment is not used sufficiently well to check that pupils have remembered the knowledge they have been taught. As a result, some pupils have gaps in what they know and do not build their knowledge well over time. The trust should ensure that teachers use assessment effectively across all subjects and use this information to inform future learning.
  • In some areas, the impact of the curriculum is not evaluated well enough. As a result, the school is not clear as to how well pupils build their knowledge over time. The trust needs to ensure that all aspects of its work is evaluated effectively so that it can address any shortcomings and build on the strengths that already exist.
