Ofsted Insights

From Ofsted's June 2025 inspection report.

What This School Does Well

Your child will be happy at this school—pupils genuinely enjoy learning and feel safe and cared for. The school excels at helping children with additional needs through trained specialists, and older pupils support younger ones thoughtfully. Staff are well-supported and create a welcoming community where your child's wellbeing matters.

Key Strengths

  • Pupils are happy, safe, and show good behaviour and kindness to each other
  • Staff are well-trained and supported, with particular expertise in supporting pupils with SEND
  • Phonics teaching is effective in Years 1 and 2, helping pupils become fluent readers
  • Strong personal development programme including community visits, charitable fundraising, and careers education
  • Well-designed careers programme with practical skills like job applications and interviews

Areas for Improvement

  • Limited curriculum offer—some subjects like PE are not taught at all, and others only taught to certain year groups
  • Curriculum is not properly sequenced; pupils lack prior knowledge needed to learn new topics effectively
  • Teaching does not routinely identify and correct gaps in pupils' knowledge or misconceptions
  • Early years provision is weak, with Reception children not learning phonics and not reaching good standards in English
  • Limited range of high-quality reading books available to pupils

Safeguarding

Safeguarding arrangements are effective.

Extracurricular Activities

Singing and dancing activities at other schools, residential visits, performances at local care homes, charitable fundraising, chess at lunchtimes, workshops at museums on road safety and drug awareness, group science projects including growing vegetables and making electrical circuits

T T T Y Y School has been rated Inadequate overall. While pupils enjoy school and behave well, the school does not provide a broad enough curriculum and pupils do not achieve well enough in their secular studies.
