What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 22 November 2022
One pupil told the inspector: 'We are all part of Team Manor Leas. Nobody is left out'. This sums up the school well. Pupils get on well and look out for each other. Everyone is valued. Pupils are expected to be respectful, safe and ready to learn. They work hard to live up to this. They know how the school's values of determination, innovation and ambition help them to learn. Behaviour is highly positive. Pupils need few reminders. They are motivated by the rewards on offer, including earning Dojo points, golden tokens and being star of the day. Pupils regularly get to try a wide range of activities in 'enrichment' sessions. These include fitness, board games, yoga and creative writing. Leaders ensure that nobody misses out on these activities. At the time of the inspection, there was a buzz of excitement about the pop-up swimming pool that was being prepared for use. Bullying is rare. Pupils know what bullying is and the different forms that it can take. They know who they can talk to should it happen. However, a small number of pupils say that they may not feel confident enough to report it should it occur.
What the school should improve
- A small number of pupils say that they may not feel confident enough to report bullying should it occur. This means that these pupils might not get the help or support that they need quickly. Leaders should ensure that all pupils feel confident to report instances of bullying should they occur.
- Overall, the school's curriculum is well planned and sequenced. However, in a small number of subjects, the curriculum does not make clear the most important knowledge that pupils are expected to learn and remember. As a result, pupils' recall of curriculum content is inconsistent. Leaders should ensure that the curriculum, across all subjects, makes clear the most important content that pupils are expected to know and remember, at each stage of their education.
- A significant proportion of trustees are new to role. They do not yet have the knowledge required to consistently hold leaders to account. The board of trustees should ensure that all members are quickly and comprehensively trained so that they can consistently hold leaders to account for the school's overall effectiveness.
