What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 12 March 2024
Pupils enjoy attending this kind and caring school. They learn to respect and care for others. Pupils welcome visitors to the school and have excellent manners. Older pupils use the same play areas as younger children and enjoy looking after them. Pupils benefit from the safe school environment they create alongside staff. The school has high expectations for all pupils. More recent improvements to the curriculum have impacted positively on the progress pupils make. However, this progress is not reflected in the outcomes at the end of key stage 2. These results do not align with the strong quality of education pupils receive. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, alongside some unique circumstances, disproportionately affected this cohort of pupils. Pupils behave very well in lessons. They are quick to engage with learning and keen to answer questions. They show an enthusiastic approach to their learning. In the early years, children enjoy the variety of stimulating activities in the learning environment. They get off to a very positive start in their school journey. Pupils enjoy a wide range of clubs. These include a samba band and an art club. The school encourages all pupils to attend these clubs. It works closely with the more vulnerable pupils to help remove any barriers to their attendance.
What the school should improve
- In some foundation subjects, the school's curriculum lacks sufficient detail. This means there are missed opportunities to emphasise the most important knowledge pupils need to remember. The school should ensure that the curriculum is consistently clear and detailed to focus on the most important knowledge that pupils need to be ready for the next stage of learning.
