Ofsted's report, in its own words
What is it like to attend this school?
There are high expectations on pupils to succeed academically and personally. These ambitions are typically met. Behaviour in lessons and around the school is exemplary. This is because pupils understand the 'good to be green' system that helps to ensure positive and respectful relationships exist between pupils and staff. This contributes to pupils feeling safe and being kept safe in school.
Pupils play an active part in their school community. For example, they support each other as buddy readers and take on responsibilities, such as well-being ambassadors or as members of 'Squad 19'.
What does the school do well and what does it need to do better?
Pupils learn an ambitious curriculum. In all subjects, leaders have clearly identified what pupils should learn. This is well sequenced so that pupils return to and practise important ideas before tackling more complex learning. For example, in mathematics, children in early years practise a variety of number skills as part of everyday routines. At snack time, for instance, children select the right coins for the food they have chosen. Pupils build on this foundation when completing more complex operations to solve problems with increasing confidence. Similarly, in history, children in Reception learn the difference between past and present. Throughout the school, pupils build a chronological understanding that they apply when considering discrimination at different points in time.
Pupils with special educational needs and /or disabilities (SEND) are accurately identified. Staff are well trained to make meaningful adaptations to tasks and activities. As a result, these pupils access the same ambitious curriculum as their peers and achieve well from their different starting points.
