What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 30 November 2022
Pupils at this school are happy and safe and bubble with enthusiasm. They exemplify the school's vision of 'Love, laugh and learn'. Teachers have high expectations, and pupils are keen to meet these. They work hard and try hard because they want to do the best that they can. They are confident and resilient. Pupils' behaviour is good. They understand and refer to the three simple school rules: 'ready, respect, safe'. They are very clear that they should be respectful towards one another as well as towards their teachers. As a result, they are kind and caring. This means that bullying very rarely happens. Pupils say that bullying simply is not tolerated. They say that they learn to be 'active bystanders' who never turn a blind eye to the distress of others. They are proud to be 'bully busters'. Pupils have many opportunities to develop new interests and learn new skills through the wide range of clubs provided. These include drama, craft and writing clubs. They talk enthusiastically about the 'memorable experiences' they have, including visits to museums and art galleries. They aspire to achieve one of the many pupil leadership roles available in the school.
What the school should improve
- At breaktimes, the shared outdoor space for pupils is sometimes dominated by boisterous play. These means that some pupils struggle to find a calm area for the quieter activities they prefer. Leaders should ensure that pupils' breaktime behaviour is further regulated so that the shared outside space makes provision for those who wish to sit quietly.
- Occasionally, teachers simplify work set for pupils who need additional support by too much. When this happens, these pupils do not get the opportunity to develop and practise the skills they need to access more complex ideas and texts. Leaders should ensure that all teachers have a thorough understanding of the difference between oversimplification and making adaptations to enable pupils to achieve the ambitious end-points set.
