What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 26 September 2023
Pupils enjoy attending this warm and friendly school. Adults are kind and caring. They know the pupils well and help them to feel happy and safe. Leaders have the highest expectations of what pupils can achieve. Pupils enjoy their lessons and work hard. The school is a calm and orderly place. Pupils behave well in lessons and around the school. The school's new 'behaviour blueprint' ensures that there are clear routines for good behaviour in classrooms and around the school. Children in Nursery and Reception play and learn happily together. They learn to take turns and share. Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are fully included in all aspects of school life. If pupils have any concerns, they are confident that staff will take action to deal with them. The school encourages pupils to be active and responsible citizens. For example, pupils can take part in the school council. Pupils learn about different cultures and beliefs, and they visit local places of worship. Staff promote pupils' positive mental health and well-being. Parents and carers are positive about the school. One parent summed up the views of many when they said, 'This is a small school that packs a big punch!'
What the school should improve
- In some subjects, the school's curricular thinking is not fully embedded. This means that pupils do not deepen their subject-specific knowledge and understanding. The school must ensure that curricular intent is fully implemented in all subjects so that pupils learn subject content consistently well.
