Read what Ofsted said (6)

From Ofsted report, inspected Apr 2023

Strengths

  • “Pupils enjoy coming to this school because their classmates are kind and they like learning new things.”
  • “They have strong working relationships with adults and are well cared for.”
  • “Pupils behave sensibly and reported incidents of bullying are rare.”

To improve

  • “In some subjects, revised and improved ambitious curriculum thinking and implementation are at the early stages of being embedded.”
  • “This means that pupils do not achieve as highly as they could.”
  • “Leaders should ensure that across the subjects, they fully and securely embed the revised planned curriculums so that pupils can achieve their full potential.”
