What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 29 April 2025

Pupils love coming to this school. It is a safe place where they are looked after well. Pupils are confident that staff will help them if they have any concerns or worries. Pupils speak warmly about the relationships that they have with adults in school, describing them as kind and supportive. The school forms part of a close-knit community. Pupils say it is like belonging to a 'big family'. The school expects pupils to 'work hard to achieve together', and they rise to these high expectations. They focus well in lessons and engage positively in their learning. As a result, pupils achieve well across the curriculum. Pupils behave well, both in lessons and around the school. They understand the school's expectations and respond positively to the clear routines that are in place. Classrooms are calm and orderly. Pupils learn without disruption. Pupils are polite, respectful and considerate towards others, contributing to the warm and welcoming atmosphere that fills this school. Pupils enjoy the many enriching opportunities that the school provides, from clubs to special events, such as international and cultural evenings. They feel proud to be part of this school community.

What the school should improve

  • Sometimes, pupils' understanding of subject-specific vocabulary is not as clear as it could be. This lessens the depth of pupils' knowledge and understanding in some subjects. The school should ensure that pupils learn and have the opportunity to apply vocabulary accurately and confidently in their learning.
