What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 23 May 2023
St Faith's is a happy school. Parents, pupils and staff say that it has a real family feel. As one parent stated: 'It is an important part of our neighbourhood. The positive environment of the school has a lovely knock-on effect in the community.' Pupils are proud to attend. They talk fondly of their experiences. They are proud to be active participants in their school. There are a range of responsibilities available for pupils, such as 'digital leaders' and 'peace monitors'. Leaders have high expectations. They expect all pupils to live up to these. This extends beyond the academic. At the heart of all that the school does are its values: 'friendship, respect, compassion, service in the community, trust and justice'. These values, along with the school's rules of 'ready, respectful and safe', ensure that pupils behave well. Pupils develop a robust understanding of British values. These help them to become responsible citizens. All are welcome at St Faith's. Staff get to know new pupils and their families quickly. Leaders make sure that parents and carers receive the information they need to support their children at home. Consequently, pupils settle quickly into school life.
What the school should improve
- The school's curriculum is well structured. However, in a small number of subjects there is too much content. As a consequence, some content is missed and gaps develop in pupils' knowledge. Subject leaders should revisit their intended curriculum and make the necessary changes to ensure the curriculum is manageable, taught and remembered.
- In a few subjects, some teachers lack subject knowledge and, as a consequence, confidence. This means that a few staff do not make learning clear for pupils and, in turn, pupils do not remember all they have learned. Subject leaders should ensure that they provide these teachers with more support and training to deliver the intended curriculum.
