From Ofsted report, inspected Oct 2023

Strengths

  • “Pupils really enjoy coming to this school and are eager to talk about what they do and learn.”
  • “From the moment that children join the school in Nursery, they learn the school’s expectations and routines.”
  • “Staff have high expectations of behaviour, and pupils respond by behaving well.”

To improve

  • “In some subjects, the activities and tasks set for pupils do not focus precisely enough on the skills and knowledge identified in the curriculum.”
  • “In these instances, pupils’ understanding is sometimes less carefully checked, meaning errors and misconceptions are not consistently addressed.”
  • “As a result, pupils do not develop the same depth of understanding in these subjects.”
