Read what Ofsted said (6)

From Ofsted report, inspected Jun 2024

Strengths

  • “This is a welcoming and inclusive school.”
  • “Staff have high expectations of what pupils can achieve.”
  • “All pupils follow the ambitious curriculum, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).”

To improve

  • “Sometimes the support for pupils who need help to improve their phonics knowledge and reading fluency is not as precise as it could be.”
  • “As a result, outcomes for these pupils' reading and phonics are not as high as they should be.”
  • “The school should sharpen their oversight of interventions so that support is suitably targeted and these pupils catch up with their peers.”
