What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 8 June 2022
Leaders are ambitious for all pupils to achieve highly. Pupils said that staff provide them with the help they need in all aspects of their learning. Pupils are proud of their achievements, including their academic successes. Recently, the number of pupils at the school has increased significantly. Pupils are mostly very positive about this. They are enthusiastic about the new approaches introduced by leaders. Pupils particularly like the 'golden ticket' used to celebrate positive attitudes to learning. Staff ensure that the school is calm and orderly for pupils to learn. Pupils typically behave well. They said that staff listen and take seriously their ideas and suggestions. Pupils are looking forward to further chances to develop their leadership skills. Staff keep pupils safe. Leaders monitor all incidents of bullying carefully. They take prompt and effective action to sort out any issues that arise. Pupils trust teachers to take action if they report concerns.
What the school should improve
- The school's curriculum is not yet sufficiently well planned and sequenced in some subjects, notably in art and design and technology. However, it is clear from leaders' actions that they are in the process of reviewing the curriculum in these subjects for September 2022. For this reason, the transitional arrangements have been applied.
- Staff do not consistently use the strategies they are given to cater for the needs of pupils with SEND. This means that sometimes adaptations to support these pupils in classrooms are not fully tailored to pupils' needs. Leaders should ensure that staff consistently use effective strategies to support pupils with SEND.
- Some aspects of leaders' record-keeping are not well organised. This means that information, including about pupils, is not always accessible or coherent. Leaders are in the process of addressing this as part of their wider work on sharpening their systems. This wider work should also include further steps to increase pupils' confidence in sharing concerns they have.
