Ofsted
Good Inspected 4 October 2023
Strengths
- “Pupils bask in the warmth, care and support that they receive from the adults in this friendly school.”
- “This helps pupils to feel safe, happy and secure.”
- “Pupils know that they will be listened to if ever they have any worries.”
To improve
- “This means that, often, groups of pupils do not learn the school’s curriculum from the early years to Year 6.”
- “As a result, some pupils have gaps in their knowledge.”
- “However, the 2022 published data shows that pupils’ progress and attainment at the end of Years 2 and 6 was significantly below the national average.”
