What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 11 July 2023
Pupils rate their school as 'ten out of ten'. Pupils say that their teachers are kind, that learning is fun and there is always help on hand. Skilled staff make sure that all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), access the same high-quality learning. Pupils talk enthusiastically about subjects such as art and design. Here, they hone their painting skills, creating impressive pieces in the style of Van Gogh. Pupils are proud that their families can view their artwork and sculptures in the school's exhibition. School leaders have consistently high expectations of how pupils behave and should treat each other. This starts right from Nursery, where pupils are taught to share and take turns. The school is a calm, warm and friendly community. Pupils are thoughtful towards one another. They are happy and safe here. Pupils enjoy a range of activities at lunchtime. There is always something fun to do, such as the trim trail or games with the giant parachute. Pupils enjoy regular trips and visits, which help bring their learning to life. Parents are very supportive of the school. One parent summed up the views of many, saying, 'The children are at the centre of everything at this school.'
What the school should improve
- Some aspects of personal development are not as well developed as they could be. This means that not all pupils receive regular opportunities to play a meaningful part in the life of the school and so develop their leadership skills. The range of extra- curricular clubs and activities offered to pupils is relatively limited. As a result, too few pupils develop their talents and interests outside of lessons. Leaders should ensure that the school's personal development curriculum is strengthened so that all pupils can experience contributing positively to school life and more pupils enjoy a wider range of extra-curricular activities.
