What This School Does Well

This school creates a strong sense of community where pupils feel confident and proud. Reading is taught excellently with pupils developing a genuine love of books, and the curriculum is ambitious and well-designed to help all children succeed. The school offers exceptional opportunities for personal development through clubs, activities, and visits that build children's resilience and sense of belonging.

  • Consistent, fair behaviour policy implementation creating a calm, caring environment where pupils have positive attitudes towards each other
  • Quick identification and effective support for pupils with SEND, who achieve well from their starting points

Areas for Improvement

  • Need to develop staff expertise in identifying and addressing pupils' misconceptions more effectively during lessons

Safeguarding

The arrangements for safeguarding are effective, with pupils knowing how to keep themselves safe including online.

Extracurricular Activities

Boys' and girls' football, dance, music activities, school library, reading trolley, literature celebrations, educational visits, breakfast club, after-school clubs, The Hive after-school provision
