What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 11 March 2025

Pupils speak about their school with enthusiasm and pride. Pupils enjoy warm and nurturing relationships with staff and feel safe and happy in their care. Pupils know that if they have any worries or concerns staff are always on hand to offer support. Pupils access a wide range of extra-curricular clubs that hone their talents and interests, such as street dance and gardening club. Pupils also have access to many sporting clubs and competitions. The school also makes sure pupils can learn beyond the academic curriculum. For example, pupils have met their local Member of Parliament to help them understand democracy and have considered their future careers through visits from local professionals. Pupils build their confidence and leadership skills by taking on roles such as playground buddies and digital leaders. They show care for others in their community by forming a partnership with a local charity. Pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), succeed in meeting the school's high expectations of behaviour and achievement. They are keen to learn, and take pride in their work. Pupils delight in sharing their successes in their weekly 'values' assemblies.

What the school should improve

  • Assessment systems for some foundation subjects are not yet fully developed. In these subjects, assessment information is not being used as effectively as it could be to address gaps in pupils' knowledge and strengthen the curriculum. The school should further strengthen assessment systems, so it provides a more precise check on what pupils know and understand.
  • In a small number of subjects, pupils are not given the opportunity to learn at the depth they could. This means pupils do not always connect new knowledge to what they have learned before. This limits their ability to deepen their understanding. The school should ensure that refinements to the curriculum are more firmly embedded so that pupils develop a deep range of knowledge in all subjects.
