What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 13 March 2023
This is a kind school where everyone is cared for. Relationships between staff and pupils are strong. Pupils feel safe. They know that if they have a concern an adult will help them. The school's core values of respect, creativity, kindness and resilience are central to all the school does. Pupils are polite and respectful to each other and to adults. They behave well. Pupils do not worry about any incidents of bullying as they know adults will deal promptly with their concerns. Leaders have made sure the curriculum is engaging. Pupils enjoy their learning and strive to follow the school motto, to 'be the best they can be'. Children in the Reception classes love the opportunities to take their learning outside. Older pupils are keen to participate in class discussions or debates. Pupils listen well and do not disturb or interrupt others' learning. They know the school rules, and the consequences if they do not follow them. Pupils are proud of their school. They are keen to take on a variety of roles and responsibilities and to contribute to school life. For example, pupils in Years 5 and 6 talk enthusiastically about the training they have in order to become anti-bullying ambassadors and play leaders.
What the school should improve
- Teachers are not planning and adapting tasks to meet the needs of all pupils consistently enough. Consequently, the small number of pupils with barriers to learning, especially those with SEND, do not make the progress they could. Leaders should ensure that teachers are proficient in supporting all pupils to know and remember more.
