What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 30 January 2024
The school's values of ambition, teamwork and honesty are evident in the actions of staff and pupils. There are high aspirations for what all pupils, including those with special education needs and/or disabilities (SEND), can achieve. The school provides learning and wider opportunities that pupils enjoy and benefit from. Pupils are well prepared for life in modern Britain. They say they are encouraged to respect difference and they do. There are high expectations of pupils' behaviour and these expectations are increasing all the time. Most pupils behave well. Pupils say that they have trusted adults with whom they can share concerns. On the rare occasions when bullying happens, pupils say that it is addressed. Pupils feel safe. Sixth-form students, including those new to the school, say that they feel well supported. There is a wide range of clubs in which many pupils, including those with SEND, participate. An American Football club and a girls' football club have been created in response to pupil interests. Pupils benefit from trips such as to First World War battlefields linked to their study of history and a London theatre trip connected with their drama lessons.
What the school should improve
- In some lessons, teachers do not routinely check pupils' understanding with sufficient precision to help them move their learning on. This means that there are occasions when pupils miss out on opportunities to correct misconceptions and to deepen their understanding of the subjects they study. The school should ensure that pupils are consistently provided with opportunities to deepen their understanding and connect their learning.
- Some pupils, including the most vulnerable, do not yet attend well enough. As a result, they miss out on the good quality of education and the wider opportunities that the school provides. The school should ensure that the work to support pupils who are regularly absent enables these pupils to attend more often.
