What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 27 September 2022
The school's vision, 'Living life in all its fullness', is the heartbeat of this welcoming and happy school. Staff know pupils and their families well. Pupils enjoy coming to school and they feel safe. Leaders have created a nurturing and caring environment that is valued by parents. Leaders expect pupils to do their very best. All pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), rise to this challenge by engaging fully in lessons and working hard. As a result, pupils achieve well. Pupils behave well around the school because leaders have set clear expectations of them. Consequently, pupils are calm and engaged in lessons and play well together at breaktimes. There are strong and positive relationships between adults and pupils. Bullying is very rare and adults resolve it quickly if it happens. The school provides a wealth of opportunities for pupils to develop their leadership skills, including as science ambassadors, sports leaders and eco-warriors. This creates a positive atmosphere around the school. 'Pupil Play Leaders' organise fun games and activities at breaktimes for others to enjoy. Pupils are proud to represent their school in this way.
What the school should improve
- There is an inconsistent approach to the support provided for pupils at the earliest stages of learning to read. Sometimes, this support is not effective. This means that some pupils do not learn to read quickly enough. Leaders must ensure that a consistent approach to reading is implemented so support for reading is effective for all pupils in the school.
- In some subjects, teachers do not always design tasks that help pupils to build on content they have been taught when learning new information. As a result, pupils struggle to remember new knowledge securely. Leaders must improve teachers' subject and pedagogical content knowledge so that teachers can help pupils to remember long term the content they have been taught.
