What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 17 October 2023
Pupils thrive in this welcoming school. They feel happy and safe. Pupils behave very well. They know that staff will be fair and consistent when solving any problems they may have. Staff model respectful and considerate behaviour. Pupils reflect this in their cooperative and friendly play. Pupils excitedly share facts and opinions with their teachers. They take part in class debates confidently and use the range of vocabulary they learn skilfully. In many subjects, pupils remember their prior learning and use this knowledge to complete increasingly complex activities as they move through the year groups. The school places great importance on the teaching of values such as acceptance and tolerance. Pupils demonstrate these qualities through their kind support of each other. For example, pupils learned how to say 'hello' in Ukrainian to welcome new students to the school. Pupils enthusiastically volunteer for a range of leadership roles. These include being play leaders or supporting younger pupils as reading mentors. Pupils develop their talents through the school's clubs and activities. They learn a range of musical instruments, such as keyboard or guitar. Pupils enjoy playing instruments in assemblies and in performances in local churches. They take great pleasure in performing in public and representing the school.
What the school should improve
- Some pupils do not always remember as much as they could in history, and they do not always develop their disciplinary knowledge well enough. Leaders need to ensure that disciplinary content is revisited and refined to support all pupils in developing a thorough understanding of history.
