What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 21 January 2025

The school's vision that 'Our children become the rocks upon which a better world can be built', is reflected in the sense of community that pervades the school. Pupils are caring and considerate members of their school community. They treat others with compassion and show respect for difference in all its forms. Pupils are proud to fulfil their leadership roles. As house captains, reading and playground buddies or collective worship monitors, pupils learn how to make a positive contribution to school life. Social times are joyous and safe. Pupils appreciate the various activities and play equipment that are provided for them. Throughout the school, there are warm and productive relationships between pupils and staff. Pupils trust that staff want the best for them. Pupils recognise and respect the high expectations of adults in the school. They consistently meet these by being kind and following the rules and routines of the playground and classrooms well. This is a happy school, where all pupils, including pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), achieve well. The school is ambitious for what pupils will experience. Pupils benefit from having their needs well known and met by staff.

What the school should improve

  • The school has not refined the curriculum in a small number of non-core subjects. This means that pupils are not learning as well as they could through the entire curriculum. The school should make sure that in all subjects taught, there is a progression of knowledge sequenced towards ambitious endpoints so that pupils can build coherent knowledge effectively over time.
