From Ofsted report, inspected Mar 2025

Strengths

  • “This is a caring and nurturing school.”
  • “Staff have high expectations for pupils’ behaviour and attitudes towards learning, including pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).”
  • “Pupils meet these expectations with enthusiasm.”

To improve

  • “As a result, in these subjects, pupils do not build their knowledge as well as they could.”
  • “The school should ensure that teachers receive the support they need to teach the ambitious curriculum well.”
  • “Rates of persistent absence for pupils, including those who are disadvantaged and with SEND, continue to be high.”
