What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 15 October 2024
Pupils feel they belong in this warm and friendly school. The school's CARE values of 'community, adventure, respect and excellence' make a tangible impact on pupils. Pupils feel they are listened to, are safe and know staff will help them with any worries they have. They recognise the importance of their learning, so lessons are calm and focused. The school is ambitious for pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Many pupils, including those with SEND, achieve well across the curriculum. Pupils enjoy the many ways in which they contribute to the school. For example, the school council is proud to have made a contribution to designing the school's playground equipment. Science ambassadors are helping to plan clubs for pupils at lunchtimes. Clubs, including football, Lego and the very popular Christmas decoration club are well attended. The school plans for pupils to be healthy and active. Pupils take part in the daily mile and can represent their school through many sporting activities. They are very proud of winning the football league cup.
What the school should improve
- The school's delivery of the curriculum is not consistently effective in all subject areas. This means that pupils are not making as much progress as they could across the curriculum. The school needs to evaluate the effectiveness of teaching and assessment on pupils' learning and put in place support and training where needed.
- The school does not always ensure that learning is appropriate to meet the needs of pupils with SEND. Where this is the case, these pupils do not learn as well as they could. The school should ensure that the needs of pupils with SEND are well understood and that the curriculum is adapted to meet these needs with greater consistency.
