What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 23 January 2024
St George's is a warm and friendly school. The corridors beautifully celebrate the ethos of the school and the pupils' work. Staff know pupils and their families well. They look after pupils and make sure they feel safe and happy. Pupils receive positive recognition when they demonstrate the school values through their everyday actions. They wear their 'star badges' with pride. Pupils understand that everyone is equal: 'We are all different, but we are all human'. This is evident in the way that they treat others in school. Leaders from across the trust are aspirational for every pupil to achieve their full potential. Trust and school leaders work together to ensure that all pupils have access to an ambitious curriculum that enables pupils to achieve well. Pupils embrace opportunities to contribute to their school. They become reading ambassadors, members of the school council or young translators. Peer mentors take their duties seriously and have a valuable role in supporting other children at playtime. Pupils say that when bullying happens, their teachers deal with it well. They say that they have trusted adults they can talk to if they have a problem. Pupils say they enjoy school and understand how to keep themselves safe, including online.
What the school should improve
- Some subjects are not as well embedded as others. This means that the work pupils are asked to complete is not always well matched to the intended learning. The school should ensure that it continues to develop these subjects so that the learning of pupils is of equally high quality in all subjects.
- Pupils who are new to English are not developing their understanding as well as they could be. This is because the school has not given enough thought to how it will teach these pupils words and their meaning. The school should ensure that it continues to develop induction strategies so that there is a clear plan for acquisition of the English language for this group of pupils.
