Ofsted
Good Inspected 5 March 2024
Strengths
- “Pupils are safe and happy at John Keble.”
- “They love demonstrating responsibility in roles such as junior road safety officers, house captains or ‘learning leaders’.”
- “Wider opportunities, for example Greek workshops, visiting the Titanic museum or trips to the theatre, help to bring learning to life.”
To improve
- “However, the activities that pupils complete in lessons do not always help pupils to practise and use knowledge as effectively as they could.”
- “The school knows that there is more work to do to ensure that the precise knowledge that pupils need to be taught is set out clearly in all subjects.”
- “However, at times, staff do not check what pupils know effectively or act quickly enough to address misconceptions.”
