Read what Ofsted said (6)

From Ofsted report, inspected Apr 2023

Strengths

  • “Leaders and staff are aspirational for all pupils, including pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).”
  • “Leaders have high expectations for what pupils can achieve and want the very best for them.”
  • “The curriculum ensures that pupils learn and remember knowledge successfully in most subjects.”

To improve

  • “Leaders have developed clear policies and procedures for learning and behaviour, including in the early years.”
  • “However, not all staff fully understand and implement them.”
  • “This leads to some inconsistencies in how well pupils learn and behave.”
