What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 29 February 2024

Pupils love coming to this school. They are nurtured by staff who know them and their families well. Pupils trust adults to help them with any difficulties they experience. Consequently, pupils get rapid support when they need it. Pupils are respectful of staff and of their peers. High expectations and strong routines contribute to a calm and purposeful atmosphere. Pupils of all ages work together co- operatively. The atmosphere is vibrant and harmonious. Pupils of all ages join in with the many activites that are available to them. Experiences such as outdoor education and the many school events and clubs enrich pupils' lives. The school ensure that pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) take part in these. Pupils contribute to the school and to the wider community. Older pupils are 'buddies' to the very youngest. The choir performs at public events ranging from Malmsbury Abbey to homes for the elderly. Parents have extremely positive views of the school. Their children are safe and happy. Consequently, pupils thrive both academically and socially.

What the school should improve

  • Teaching activities do not always develop pupils recall of their learning well enough. When this occurs, pupils do not remember what they have been taught before and so cannot build on this learning. The school needs to ensure that pupils consistently know and remember more of the curriculum.
