What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 10 July 2024
Pupils are at the heart of this diverse and inclusive school. Leaders have high expectations and want all pupils to achieve well. The school values of 'kindness, curiosity and commitment' are evident in the way pupils interact with adults and their peers on a day-to-day basis. The school supports pupils in making the right choices. Pupils feel safe and enjoy coming to school. They value their friendships. Pupils have extremely positive attitudes to their learning. Pastoral support is strong. This enables pupils to engage effectively in their learning and their own personal development. Pupils are proud of their school. They are polite and considerate towards others. Pupils live up to adults' high expectations of behaviour. They understand the importance of being 'respectful, responsible and safe'. The school is a calm and purposeful place to learn. The school places high importance on developing pupils as individuals. Parents are overwhelmingly positive about the education and the opportunities the school provides. One commented, 'The school goes beyond teaching the bare bones of the curriculum and help my child thrive as an individual and grow important skills for life.' Diversity is celebrated. Pupils are highly tolerant and accept everyone's uniqueness.
What the school should improve
- Strategies to address gaps in learning for some disadvantaged pupils, particularly in writing and mathematics, remain in the early stages of implementation. As a result, some disadvantaged pupils do not progress as well as their peers through the curriculum. The trust should ensure that a high focus on meeting the needs of this group of pupils is embedded so that all pupils are ready for the next stage of their education.
