Ofsted
Good Inspected 21 November 2023
Strengths
- “It is a warm and welcoming place where everyone is accepted for who they are.”
- “Pupils play a role in creating a positive school culture.”
- “For example, they use assemblies to explain the impact of intolerant language.”
To improve
- “However, the curriculum is not informed by precise assessment of gaps in pupils’ phonics knowledge and so does not target these directly.”
- “Nonetheless, some pupils cannot write independently without this support, which sometimes limits opportunities for them to hone their skills.”
- “Nevertheless, pupils have not always chosen to continue with a modern foreign language.”
