What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 7 May 2025
This is a friendly and welcoming school. Staff manage their classes kindly, calmly and effectively. They expect pupils to do their best, and pupils respond well to this. They are attentive to their teachers, work hard and support one another. The school values teamwork and effort and supports pupils to develop and celebrate these qualities. It also teaches pupils about the importance of honesty, empathy and resilience. This helps pupils to develop healthy attitudes and constructive outlooks on life. These attitudes show in their positive behaviour, both in class and at breaktimes. Pupils are happy here. They feel safe, secure and enjoy their lessons. This enjoyment and appreciation of school shows in their regular attendance and keenness in class. The school's high expectations feed into classroom learning. Staff celebrate pupils' successes and support them when they need help. Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are fully included in all the school does. This inclusive approach supports all to achieve well. Beyond lessons, there are many extra activities for pupils to do. Clubs, trips and special events add further interest to the school day and enhance the curriculum. The school's grounds are also used well for learning and play.
What the school should improve
- Staff subject knowledge is stronger in some foundation subjects than in others. This means that pupils' learning is not as consistently effective across all foundation subjects. The school should continue to strengthen staff subject knowledge so that all pupils achieve as well as possible across the whole curriculum.
- In a few foundation subjects, the curriculum does not focus enough on some of the big concepts that reoccur within them. This makes it harder for pupils to see connections between new and previous learning. The school should review aspects of the curriculum to help pupils make meaningful links between important content and ideas in these subjects.
