What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 18 October 2022

Pupils at St George's C of E enjoy coming to school. They appreciate the help adults give them in lessons. They work hard and aspire to reach the high expectations leaders have of them. Most pupils achieve well across the curriculum. Leaders promote the school's inclusive and Christian values of respect, perseverance, compassion and friendship. These are carefully woven through all aspects of school life. The school has a strong focus on nurturing the whole child. Pupils know and understand the school's rules and values. They behave well in and outside of lessons. They look after each other. Pupils make friends easily because they are kind to each other. Bullying is rare. When it does happen, adults deal with it quickly. Pupils feel safe and appreciate how much the adults at school care about them. They value teachers listening to them. They say they can talk to the teachers about anything that interests them or bothers them. Pupils enjoy the opportunities teachers have carefully chosen for them. These include sports tournaments, visiting museums and going on welly walks. They appreciate taking on positions of leadership, such as house captains, librarians and science ambassadors. This helps pupils to understand how to be responsible.

What the school should improve

  • Teachers do not use assessment effectively in some subjects. They do not make the right checks to ensure that pupils are remembering their learning. Leaders should review arrangements for how teachers assess the progress that pupils make against the key knowledge identified in curriculum plans and use this information effectively in order to inform future planning.
  • In some subjects, leaders have not allowed for opportunities to revisit previous learning to embed key knowledge. As a result of this, pupils sometimes struggle to remember their learning. Leaders should ensure that there are opportunities within the curriculum to revisit learning to ensure that pupils can use and apply their knowledge.
