What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 18 October 2023
Pupils are proud to belong to this inclusive school. Pupils refer to their school as a family which makes them feel happy and safe. Children in early years settle quickly into the life of the school. Older pupils are keen to help younger children throughout the day. They do this calmly and patiently. There are strong, positive relationships among staff and pupils. Everyone cares for and supports one another well. Pupils know there is a trusted adult who will help if they have a concern. Bullying is extremely rare. Pupils are considerate of others in lessons and around school. At lunchtime, pupils enjoy playing games and socialising with their friends. The school encourages pupils to take on leadership roles. These include being members of the school council, 'mini mental health champions' and librarians. Pupils take their responsibilities seriously, knowing their contribution is important to the school. The school has an ambitious curriculum, which begins in the early years. Pupils value their learning and the exciting things they do. The school offers pupils a wide range of trips, residential stays and visits. These experiences support pupils' learning and develop their interests. Pupils enjoy, for example, local walks and visiting different places of worship.
What the school should improve
- In some subjects, the sequencing of key knowledge needs refinement. It is not clear what essential content needs to be emphasised and when. This means that pupils are not learning key concepts in sufficient detail. The school needs to ensure that the important knowledge in these subjects is precisely ordered, emphasised by teachers and checked to ensure pupils have learned and remembered it.
- A small number of subjects in the curriculum have been reviewed and are still being developed. In these subjects, the school is not using assessment well enough to identify accurately what pupils know and can remember. This means some pupils are being moved on to new learning without having secured the supporting knowledge they need. The school should ensure that formative and summative assessment are equally precise in all subjects and are being used to inform plans for pupils' future learning effectively.
