What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 27 February 2024
Pupils, parents and staff are rightly proud of their school. The 'Together we succeed' motto ensures that the whole school community works together and aims high. The comment of one parent reflects the thoughts of many: 'The school has such a welcoming environment where my children have been able to thrive.' Pupil behaviour is exceptional. Pupils support each other to behave well. For example, they can be heard singing the 'Werrington Way' song in and around school when pupils need a friendly reminder about how they are expected to behave at the school. The school prepares pupils well for life in modern Britain. It ensures that pupils learn about different cultures, religions and relationships. Pupils are very knowledgeable about these. The 'golden strands' of migration, innovation, conflict, sustainability, equality and community are used very effectively to promote equality and diversity. Pupils have worked with leaders to identify leadership roles for them to carry out. Every pupil in Year 6 has a responsibility, which they take seriously. These responsibilities include roles such as headteacher helpers, librarians and playtime activity leaders. Pupils benefit from a wide range of clubs, such as choir, mindfulness, various sports clubs, baking and bug club.
What the school should improve
- In a small number of subjects, staff do not always ensure that learning is focused on the key knowledge the school intends pupils to learn. This slows pupils learning. The school should ensure that all staff make sure pupils learn the knowledge that is intended.
