What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 4 May 2023
Pupils are proud of their school. They enjoy coming to school each day and are happy and safe. Pupils appreciate the care and support they receive from all staff. Staff encourage pupils to treat each other with respect and kindness. Leaders and all staff have high expectations of pupils at all times. They apply their behaviour policy consistently. Because of this, pupils behave well in lessons and around the school. Staff develop pupils' talents and interests well. Pupils enjoy a broad range of after- school clubs and activities, which they attend regularly. These include sport, music and chess. Pupils participate in a variety of musical experiences, such as performances at well-known venues. Staff encourage pupils to take on different responsibilities. For instance, pupils vote for each other to be appointed to roles as, for example, monitors.
What the school should improve
- In a few subjects, leaders do not ensure that staff have strong subject knowledge beyond their areas of expertise. As a result, teaching does not develop pupils' subject-specific understanding in these subjects as effectively. Leaders should ensure that staff receive subject-specific training so that they develop pupils' deeper knowledge consistently.
- In early years, sometimes, teaching does not present learning clearly. This means that the intended curriculum is sometimes not delivered as effectively as it could be. Leaders should continue their work in ensuring that staff in the early years are helped to improve their support for children's' understanding in all areas of learning.
