Ofsted's report, in its own words
What is it like to attend this school?
Pupils are proud members of this inclusive school. Pupils know that staff expect their best efforts, and respond with enthusiasm. As a result, many pupils achieve well. This includes pupils who are disadvantaged and with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). The school's mission statement 'aim high, learn together, feel proud' permeates all aspects of school life.
Pupils are happy being at school and feel safe. The school provides enjoyable learning experiences for all. The encouragement of respect for different cultures and diversity promotes an appreciation of others. Pupils with SEND, including those in the specialist unit for pupils with visual impairment, learn successfully alongside their peers. Respectful relationships exist across the school.
What does the school do well and what does it need to do better?
The school's curriculum is ambitious for all pupils, including those who are disadvantaged and pupils with SEND. A sharp focus on basic skills provides pupils with a firm foundation to build their knowledge and skills across the curriculum. Academic outcomes in national assessments show that pupils at the end of Year 6 achieve well in reading, writing and mathematics.
The curriculum is usually well organised with structured activities. This supports most pupils to reach the end points as identified by the school. However, in a few subjects, teaching does not routinely revisit pupils' prior knowledge to support their current learning. This leads to some pupils being less confident to recall and connect new learning with their prior learning from previous lessons.
