From Ofsted report, inspected Oct 2023

Strengths

  • “Pupils are happy at school.”
  • “They trust adults to help them with any concerns that they may have.”
  • “Pupils’ behaviour is very calm and orderly.”

To improve

  • “In some subjects, the school’s thinking about how pupils progress through the curriculum is not as clear as it should be.”
  • “This means that sometimes staff do not give sufficient focus to the vocabulary, knowledge and skills that pupils should learn.”
