What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 23 May 2023

Pupils are happy and confident in this school. This is because of the highly positive relationships between staff and pupils. Pupils 'strive for success' in their learning. From the time they join, they learn about the school values that include self- motivation, resilience and independence. Pupils readily help each other to learn. This is evident in Reception, where the children work together to practise saying newly learned words during paired reading activities. Pupils' behaviour is exemplary. Staff have exceptionally high expectations of pupils' conduct. Pupils follow the clearly defined rules set out in 'The Titchfield Way'. They move quickly between activities in the classroom. This maximises time spent learning. Pupils feel safe in the knowledge that they can report any concerns they have. They know that the very rare cases of bullying are dealt with quickly and effectively by their teachers. At social times, pupils and adults play harmoniously with each other. The climbing equipment and sandpit are particularly popular amongst pupils. Pupils' learning extends beyond the classroom. They learn about the importance of being a global citizen through looking after their school environment. The school's young governors raise money for improvement projects. Pupils also enjoy sports day and the popular residential trips.

What the school should improve

  • Where the curriculum is still being developed, teachers do not always have a secure subject and teaching knowledge. Consequently, they do not always build pupils' knowledge systematically. Leaders need to ensure that teachers have the expertise and skills to maximise pupils' learning across all subjects.
  • Assessment within some subjects is not yet consistently as precise as leaders intend. Teachers do not always carefully check what has been securely learned, meaning the next steps in learning are not always as precisely planned as they could be. Leaders should work carefully with teachers to implement and monitor how teachers check what pupils have securely learned across the school's full curriculum.
