Read what Ofsted said (6)

From Ofsted report, inspected Jun 2023

Strengths

  • “Pupils are proud of their school and are excited to share their learning experiences.”
  • “Leaders provide an ambitious curriculum, with high expectations for all pupils.”
  • “Pupils are happy.”

To improve

  • “In a few foundation subjects, the assessment of what children already know is not as sharp as in other subjects.”
  • “Where this is the case, teachers do not build on pupils’ prior learning with precision.”
  • “This limits pupils’ deeper knowledge and understanding.”
