From Ofsted report, inspected Mar 2024

Strengths

  • “Pupils enjoy attending this happy and respectful school.”
  • “Pupils are proud of their school and the value of ‘care’ is reflected in pupils’ day-to-day conduct.”
  • “The school has high expectations of pupils’ behaviour and what they can achieve.”

To improve

  • “In some subjects, the subject specific skills and knowledge that pupils need to know and remember are not clearly set out.”
  • “This means that some pupils have gaps in their learning and have developed misconceptions.”
  • “Leaders need to ensure the key subject skills and knowledge are taught and check that pupils’ misconceptions are addressed.”
