What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 28 March 2023
Leaders have created a fully inclusive environment where all pupils are supported to thrive and do their best. The Willow values of 'positive relationships, diversity and equity, excellence, wellness and community' are put into practice in every aspect of leaders' and staff's work. Pupils are supported to live these values through their kindness towards, and celebration of, each other. Leaders have high academic expectations for all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Parents and carers, staff and pupils work as a team to realise those expectations. All pupils study a broad and rich curriculum. Across a range of subjects, they achieve highly and remember knowledge securely and in depth. Pupils' behaviour is highly positive and allows them to learn well in lessons. This is because leaders have designed a fair and appropriate behaviour policy, which focuses on helping pupils reflect on and learn from their mistakes. The teaching of positive behaviour sits alongside the teaching of the academic curriculum. As a result, everyone understands how the school's approach supports pupils to behave well. Staff rarely need to use any sanctions or remind pupils about how to behave. From the early years to the end of Year 6, pupils enjoy learning at the Willow immensely. Pupils are kept safe, and they feel well supported and cared for by staff.
