What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 21 February 2023
Smiles greet you everywhere at St Teresa's. Pupils are happy, articulate and polite. Staff and pupils model the school 'SAINTS Beatitudes' of 'strive, accept, integrity, nurture, talent and service' through all aspects of school life. Together, everyone contributes passionately to this culture. All staff have high expectations, and as a result, pupils achieve and behave well. Pupils' behaviour in lessons and around the school is exemplary. Low-level disruption is incredibly rare and dealt with seamlessly. Pupils love winning 'smileys' for their kind actions and hard work. Bullying is not tolerated. If it does occur, leaders investigate it well. Leaders make sure that staff listen and act on pupils' views. For example, pupils suggest ideas for clubs. Pupils value the wide range of extra-curricular activities on offer. Many pupils love to sing in the choir. Older pupils enthusiastically told inspectors about the newly formed Gaelic football club. They are enjoying learning a new sport. Pupils develop a strong sense of community. They look out for each other. For example, playground pals and peer mediators help empower pupils to solve minor conflicts for themselves. Pupils support each other's well-being with determination.
What the school should improve
- In some foundation subjects, teachers are not clear about the most important knowledge that pupils need to remember. This means that they cannot check that pupils have remembered the right content for future learning. Leaders should refine the curriculum so that teachers know the key information pupils should retain in all year groups from Nursery to Year 6.
- In some foundation subjects, staff do not adapt their teaching sufficiently well for pupils with SEND. This means that pupils with SEND do not always learn as well as they could. Leaders should ensure that staff have the training and support they need so that they know how best to support pupils with SEND to learn well in all subjects.
