Ofsted
Good Inspected 26 September 2023
Strengths
- “They, and their parents and carers, appreciate the recent improvements made to all aspects of the school.”
- “Pupils said that teaching is now much clearer and focused.”
- “The school is highly ambitious for the achievement of all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).”
To improve
- “However, the legacy of instability of staffing and the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic have affected recent national assessment results at the end of key stage 2.”
- “However, some subjects are less well developed.”
- “In these subjects, teaching is not precise enough to ensure pupils learn more and remember more over time.”
