What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 1 October 2024
This is a school where pupils come first and adults make decisions in pupils' best interests. Staff expect the very best from pupils both in their work and conduct. They skilfully foster pupils' self-confidence and self-esteem. Adults take time and care to get to know pupils and help them succeed in all aspects of their education. Professional relationships between staff and pupils are trusting and respectful. Pupils feel happy and safe. There is very occasional bullying, but staff deal with it straightaway. The school goes the extra mile to make sure that pupils benefit fully from the wide range of interesting opportunities provided. For example, pupils revel in taking part in the origami, sports, gardening, singing and boccia clubs. They develop their leadership skills through taking on various roles, such as school councillors and mentors. Pupils relish going on a wide range of interesting trips. For example, they visit the theatre, art galleries, museums, an adventure centre and the tennis club. Older pupils thoroughly enjoy participating in outdoor expeditions. The school's careers programme is well thought out. Staff give pupils insight into a wide range of future jobs and post-16 options, ensuring that pupils receive independent and impartial guidance.
What the school should improve
- Occasionally, teachers do not help pupils to make links with what they have learned previously. As a result, some pupils do not remember and secure important knowledge as well as they could. The school should ensure that teachers have the knowledge needed to ensure that pupils remember prior learning sufficiently well.
