Ofsted's report, in its own words

What is it like to attend this school?

Everyone gets to know the school's values of respect, inspire, safe and engage (RISE). Pupils try hard to demonstrate RISE in all that they do during the school day. Pupils benefit from the school's high ambitions and expectations. Pupils enjoy learning new things and explaining to each other what they have been taught. They achieve well.

Pupils behave well. The school is a happy place to be. Pupils enjoy attending and want to learn. They have warm, mutually respectful relationships with everyone in the school. Staff help pupils to recognise their emotions so that they can manage them successfully. Pupils show consideration towards each other. A sense of kindness and care permeates the school. Social times are harmonious because pupils take care of each other and their environment. They enjoy playtimes and help each other to use the equipment provided for them.

What does the school do well and what does it need to do better?

The school has taken effective action to further improve the curriculum. There is a clear ambition for pupils, including for pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Across all subjects, the school now identifies the most important knowledge pupils need to know and remember. The school sequences this knowledge in a logical order from Year 3 to Year 6. The school works effectively with the infant school to make sure that when pupils move into Year 3, their learning builds well on what they already know.

Staff display strong subject knowledge. This helps them to explain and model ideas well to pupils. The key vocabulary discussed with pupils in lessons helps them to understand more about what is being taught. In most subjects, teachers check that pupils have understood what is being taught. They support pupils to address any mistakes or misunderstandings they may have. However, in a few subjects, sometimes teachers do not routinely check that pupils have gained the specific knowledge that is set out in the curriculum. This inhibits pupils' learning some of the intended knowledge in these subjects.
