What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 13 July 2022
The school is a close-knit community where everyone is valued. Pupils feel safe. If pupils have any problems, then the staff will help to put things right. Pupils are polite and well-mannered. They willingly hold doors open for staff and visitors. In lessons, pupils listen well and focus on their work. There is a fun atmosphere on the playground. Pupils enjoy playing and chatting with their friends. Pupils say the school's ethos of 'Work hard. Be kind' is part of everyday life in school. Pupils know about the different types of bullying, including cyber-bullying. Bullying doesn't happen very often. Pupils say that when it does, staff deal with it quickly. Leaders have overhauled and improved the curriculum and pupils achieve well. However, leaders are not complacent. They are keen to develop the quality of education further. Most parents are positive about the school. In particular, they appreciate the wide range of extra-curricular activities on offer. In their comments, they praised the way the school attends to pupils' education and their wider development. They value the attention to pupils' different needs and used words like 'fun', 'wonderful' and 'flourishing' to describe their children's experiences.
What the school should improve
- Leaders do not have a whole-school agreed approach to the teaching of handwriting. As a result, there is too much variation in the quality of pupils' handwriting and presentation across the school. Leaders should ensure that there is a whole-school agreed approach to the teaching of handwriting.
- The curriculum does not develop pupils' understanding of other faiths and cultures well enough. As a result, pupils' knowledge of different faiths and cultures is limited and, at times, confused. Leaders should ensure that the curriculum develops pupils' understanding of the range of other faiths and cultures that exist in British society.
