What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 18 March 2025
The Littletons is a place where pupils are encouraged to work hard and do their best. Pupils live up to the school's expectations of them. They are proud of their school where they live out the school's mission to 'belong, believe and achieve.' The school has strong links with the local community. All pupils are included and valued. Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) blossom here. From the moment children start in the Nursery, they feel safe. They become caring young people. Pupils behave well, and they are happy, kind and considerate. The school is passionate about helping pupils to become well-rounded, empathetic citizens by following the school's values of 'caring, honesty, perseverance, respect and responsibility'. The school provides pupils with many opportunities to develop beyond the academic. For example, pupils enjoy clubs such as sensory circuits, table tennis and yoga that extend their interests and strengthen their talents. Staff know pupils well. The nurture and care for pupils in school are impressive. Parents and carers value the school and praise the staff and school leaders. One parent, typical of many, commented, 'My child comes into school every day with a smile on his face. What more could I ask for?'
What the school should improve
- In some subjects, the curriculum lacks ambition and expectation for some pupils. This means these pupils do not achieve as well as they could. The school should ensure that staff have the knowledge and skills to adapt learning activities, giving these pupils the opportunity to extend and deepen their learning.
- The outdoor environment for children in the early years is not sufficiently developed. This limits the children's ability to further embed areas of learning beyond the classroom. The school should ensure that children in the early years have access to outdoor provision that enhances their physical development, exploration and learning.
