What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 21 September 2022
Pupils greet visitors with a warm welcome at Westfield Primary. There is a buzz around the school and pupils are keen to talk about their learning. Pupils are kind, and bullying is not accepted. Staff respond quickly and effectively if pupils need support with behaviour. Pupils feel safe and appreciate that staff care deeply about their well-being. Through 'aspirations day' and 'diversity week', teachers celebrate pupils and encourage them to dream big and aim high. Pastoral care is strong, and leaders prioritise mental health. Many pupils visit the 'zen den' and 'dragon's lair'. Expert staff provide high-quality support for pupils to help them feel good about themselves and be ready to learn. One parent said, 'The school is a rock, they are always there for us.' Another shared that staff 'go above and beyond to help'. Pupils love playing table tennis and using the exercise equipment at playtime. If they need quiet time outside, pupils relax in the nurture area and read their favourite books. Pupils appreciate opportunities to be prefects, house captains, school councillors and anti-bullying ambassadors. They enjoy opportunities such as drama workshops with a local theatre company. This inspires them to prepare and perform a Shakespeare play to parents.
What the school should improve
- In some subjects, knowledge is not precisely planned. As a result, pupils do not always know and remember more across the curriculum. For example, while pupils can describe activities in history, they cannot always connect their learning. Leaders should ensure that knowledge components are clearly defined in less- well-developed subjects.
- Language development is not ambitious or clearly planned in every subject, including in the early years. This means that pupils do not always develop the vocabulary they need to achieve more highly. Leaders should plan the specific language pupils must learn to help them with their learning.
