What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 21 January 2025

The school's Christian values, including love, joy and trust, are at the heart of pupils' experiences. This is a caring school. The school prioritises the development of pupils' character. Pupils are considerate of the views of others and highly respectful of different beliefs and cultures. The school has high expectations of what pupils can achieve. The majority of pupils reach these expectations by the time they leave the school. Pupils feel safe in school. They are confident that staff will help them if they have any concerns. Pupils move around the school sensibly. They learn to develop their independence from an early age. Pupils are highly supportive of one another. For example, older pupils help their younger peers at lunchtime. In classrooms, pupils help each other when they are finding their work difficult. Pupils learn how to stay safe, including when using the internet. Pupils enjoy attending extra-curricular clubs. They compete with pupils from other schools in sporting tournaments. Pupils contribute well to the local community. For example, pupils plant flowers in the village and take part in special events at the church.

What the school should improve

  • In some areas of the curriculum, leaders have not identified the most important knowledge that pupils should learn. As a result, in lessons, staff do not routinely prioritise the most important knowledge. As a result, pupils' knowledge in some areas of the curriculum does not build as effectively as it could. The school needs to ensure that important knowledge is clearly identified in each area of the curriculum.
  • The school gathers assessment information to check how well the curriculum is being taught. However, the school does not use this information well enough to make improvements. As a result, pupils have gaps in their learning in a small number of subjects. The school should ensure that assessment information is used effectively to address gaps in pupils' learning.
