Ofsted
School remains Good Inspected 12 January 2023
Strengths
- “Staff and pupils are proud to be part of this forward-looking and hard-working school community.”
- “Pupils talk excitedly about their school and look forward to attending each day.”
- “Staff and pupils model the school values of ‘respect, kindness, resilience and unity’ at every turn.”
To improve
- “However, in some years and some foundation subjects, there is further work to do.”
- “This is because the curriculum does not set out the detailed knowledge that pupils will need to draw on in their future learning.”
- “This means that teachers do not always know exactly what pupils have previously learned.”
