What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 7 May 2025
Pupils thrive in this nurturing and inclusive school community. They feel safe, valued and supported. Strong relationships between staff and pupils create a calm and focused atmosphere throughout the school. Pupils behave well. They show consistently positive attitudes to learning and engage enthusiastically in both lessons and wider school life. The school promotes high expectations for behaviour and achievement. Clear routines and consistent expectations ensure that classrooms are orderly and productive. Pupils take pride in their work and their school. They feel safe and know who to turn to if they have a concern. Pupils trust that adults will listen and respond appropriately. The school's ethos, rooted in the value of 'live life in all its fullness', is woven into everyday life. Pupils respect one another. They talk confidently about fairness, equality and celebrating differences. Assemblies and the wider curriculum strengthen these principles. Initiatives such as `KIVA Playground Champions' and the 'Sunshine Room' offer valuable support for pupils' emotional well-being. Pupils report that bullying is rare and, when it does occur, staff act swiftly and effectively. Pupils clearly understand their rights and responsibilities. This is shaped by the school's rights respecting approach. They are proud of their roles in the school community. They also make valuable contributions to improve the school.
What the school should improve
- In some subjects, pupils who have securely mastered the intended learning are not given tasks that deepen their knowledge and understanding further. This limits the extent to which these pupils deepen the rich, secure subject knowledge of which they are capable. The school should ensure that teaching strategies include appropriate challenge and provide regular opportunities for deeper thinking, so that pupils can fully extend their learning across the curriculum.
