What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 17 March 2026
Pupils benefit from regular routines and caring support from staff. This ensures that they gain a strong sense of belonging to the school community and feel safe. Pupils work hard and understand why having a positive work ethic is important. In key stages 1 and 2, pupils learn a lot across the curriculum and achieve well. This prepares them well for secondary school. However, there are some weaknesses in the implementation of the curriculum in the early years. As a result, children in Nursery and Reception do not get the precise support they need to learn consistently well and thrive personally and academically. Pupils typically live up to staff's high expectations and behave well. If bullying happens, it is addressed properly. This means that there are few recurrences. The school prioritises ensuring that pupils learn about themselves, valuing everyone's uniqueness. Pupils learn to be respectful and tolerant. Pupils know that discrimination is not accepted. This can be seen in the work of pupils in the equalities team. Current initiatives include a new working group called ‘say goodbye to stereotypes’ and whole-school activities such as 'free to be me' theme days. Pupils play an active part in school life. They learn about how to pull together as a team. Older pupils become positive role models; for example, Year 6 pupils take on jobs in the new wing of the school with pride. Pupils learn to debate important big ideas and issues and learn about the world around them. For example, a recent focus on the dangers of vaping has created much discussion. Pupils attend a vast array of enrichment activities, such as musical performances and sporting events. There are many clubs on offer; for example, athletics and basketball.
What the school should improve
- Leaders and governors should ensure that they have stringent and accurate oversight of all aspects of the school's work and use their findings to bring about continual improvement.
- Leaders should continue to improve the quality of provision for children in the early years so that children are prepared well for the next stage of their education.
- Leaders should ensure that teaching consistently develops pupils' knowledge so that pupils achieve highly across the curriculum.
