Read what Ofsted said (6)

From Ofsted report, inspected Mar 2025

Strengths

  • “Pupils enjoy learning and display their happiness at school in many ways.”
  • “They give a warm welcome to visitors and speak with pride about their school.”
  • “The school’s values, such as honesty and kindness, help pupils to know how to act and speak to others.”

To improve

  • “On occasion, the key knowledge that pupils should learn is not effectively emphasised through the learning activity.”
  • “This means that some pupils find it hard to commit key knowledge to their long-term memory as well as they should.”
  • “The school should ensure that learning activities are more closely aligned with the intent of the school’s ambitious curriculum.”
