What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 17 April 2024
Pupils are proud of their school. They have a sense of belonging and say their school feels like a family. The school's values of respect, curiosity and pride are reflected in how pupils treat each other. Pupils take it in turns to talk. They listen to one another. They value each other's individuality. The behaviour of pupils is exceptional. Pupils value the positions of responsibility they hold. School councillors lead assemblies and teach their peers about fundamental British values. As a result, pupils have a well-considered view of what democracy and tolerance mean for people around the world. Pupils know how to stay safe online. They appreciate what risky behaviour means and know how to keep themselves safe in the community. Pupils talk positively about the trips they go on. For example, pupils confidently explain how a recent museum trip helped them to learn about the Romans. Pupils attend a range of clubs that develop their interests and talents, such as guitar club, football club and choir. These activities help pupils to develop confidence and resilience. Parents talk positively about the school. They appreciate how the staff know each pupil individually.
What the school should improve
- In a small number of subjects, the curriculum does not always connect important knowledge well. Pupils do not understand how content links to more complex ideas and, at times, the work pupils complete in lessons lacks ambition. Where this occurs, pupils do not deepen their knowledge and understanding well. The school should ensure that the curriculum design and its delivery help pupils to connect knowledge and important concepts so that pupils deepen their understanding across all subjects.
