Ofsted Report

On 5th and 6th June 2024, the school received a visit from His Majesty's OFSTED Inspector.  The inspection lasted two days and the report from the inspector is now available by following the link below.  I am very pleased to announce that the school remains 'Good'.  The inspector reported that...

“Pupils enjoy being part of this close-knit community school.  The whole school lives by its core values of Respect, Responsibility, Resilience, Kindness and Joy… Pupils enjoy coming to school.”

“Pupils are well-mannered and behave with respect and thoughtfulness… Behaviour is a real strength of the school.  Pupils, including the youngest, are polite and courteous.  They behave sensibly during lessons and listen carefully to their teachers and classmates.  Pupils have a positive attitude to learning and work well together.”

“The school’s personal development offer is rich and broad. Pupils learn how to be safe online and in their community.  They are respectful to others and celebrate differences… Pupils love learning the school’s vision poem… and talk enthusiastically about how proud they are of their school.”

“Pupils learn a broad and balanced curriculum that is ambitious for all.  Pupils benefit from particular areas of strength, such as reading and music… What pupils learn, and the order in which they should learn it, have been carefully considered.  This means learning builds on what pupils can remember so that they gain more knowledge over time.”
