Read what Ofsted said (6)

From Ofsted report, inspected Mar 2023

Strengths

  • “Leaders nurture a strong sense of community in the school.”
  • “Parents and carers typically praised leaders for the school’s caring, ‘family’ community where children have a happy and successful time.”
  • “Leaders have high expectations that pupils will learn well and gain a wide range of educational experiences.”

To improve

  • “Occasionally, leaders do not ensure that teachers’ delivery of the curriculum develops the precise knowledge and skills that leaders intend pupils to learn.”
  • “Pupils then do not learn all the key content that leaders expect pupils to know, remember and build up.”
  • “Leaders should ensure that teachers’ planning and delivery of the curriculum prioritise pupils’ learning of the intended subject content.”
