What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 13 December 2022

Pupils enjoy attending this school. Staff care for pupils and support their emotional needs well. As one pupil said, 'The teachers all notice you and make you feel welcome here.' Pupils are happy and safe. They form positive relationships with one another. Pupils behave well, both in class and when at play. They are courteous and kind to one another. For example, older pupils selected to be 'peer mediators' encourage good behaviour at playtimes. If bullying happens, staff work swiftly to support pupils. Leaders and staff are ambitious for all pupils. They provide a curriculum that is both relevant and interesting. Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) thrive in class. Pupils develop the knowledge and skills needed to succeed across a broad range of subjects. They are well informed about different cultures and viewpoints. They learn this through the school's 'globalisation and diversifying' curriculum. One pupil said, 'Our school is really diverse and we are allowed to celebrate our cultures.' Teachers develop pupils' character and interests well. Pupils experience a rich range of activities that go beyond the curriculum. For example, pupils look after bees and develop their problem-solving skills in forest school.

What the school should improve

  • In a small number of subjects, pupils have gaps in their knowledge and understanding. As a result, they do not always build effectively on what they already know and can do. Leaders need to make sure that the essential knowledge and skills are made clear and relevant and are adapted further so that pupils know more and remember more over time.
