What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 3 December 2024
The school is at the heart of its community. Pupils and their families are proud to be a part of this caring and nurturing school. The school's values underpin every aspect of school life. Staff model these effortlessly and the curriculum embodies them. As a result, pupils are happy, attend school well and are kind to one another. Staff form positive relationships with pupils and know them well. They have high expectations for pupils' achievement. Pupils rise to these high expectations. In lessons there is a buzz that revolves around learning. Pupils not only want the best for themselves, but also their peers. At playtimes, pupils of all ages play together harmoniously. Year 6 pupils are 'buddies' for their peers in the Reception Year and they look out for them and help to develop their independence. The school council organises charitable fundraising for causes that are close to pupils' heart. For example, pupils raised money for the local hospital and for a school in Kenya. This helps pupils to demonstrate compassion to those who are less fortunate. Pupils participate in all the school has to offer. Clubs such as 'Christmas crafts,' football and reading are pupil favourites. The school choir sing in national events and in the local parish. All of this helps pupils to develop their interests and confidence.
What the school should improve
- Some pupils are given tasks that are not as sharply focused as they could be. This means that some pupils find the work too hard and some find the work too easy and this slows their learning. The school should continue to develop staff expertise so that all pupils make the best possible progress through the curriculum.
