What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 17 December 2024

This school is a warm and welcoming place where pupils are safe and happy. Pupils enjoy the challenge of the curriculum and achieve well. The school has high expectations for all pupils' achievement. Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) access the whole curriculum alongside their peers whenever possible. Pupils demonstrate exemplary conduct throughout the school day. They are polite and considerate. Pupils are respectful towards staff and their peers. This creates a harmonious environment in which to learn together. The school has carefully designed and implemented a tailored personal development offer. It ensures pupils have access to experiences that deepen their learning as they progress through the school. Pupils go on several residential trips. This initially starts with a school sleepover. This builds pupils' confidence in a familiar setting before staying at an outdoor activity centre in a later year group. This helps pupils to develop resilience and team- building skills. Pupils take on several pupil leadership roles in the school, including the school council. These roles tangibly contribute to school life. Pupils understand how their actions make a difference to others and the school community. Pupils get the chance to take part in a range of extra-curricular clubs. These include music and sports clubs. These successfully develop pupils' talents and interests.

What the school should improve

  • In some subjects, the work pupils complete does not support them to practise and embed their new learning. This means that, at times, some pupils do not learn as much as they could. The school should ensure that the ambitious curriculum is delivered consistently well so that pupils can build on their understanding effectively over time.
