School remains Good Inspected 3 July 2024
Strengths
- “Pupils blossom in this caring, close-knit school.”
- “Guiding principles known as ‘The Five Ways to Flourish’ underpin all aspects of the school, including the curriculum.”
- “Pupils can explain how they put these values into practice.”
To improve
- “However, in some wider curriculum subjects, pupils do not develop a deep enough understanding of the concepts that link topics together.”
- “For instance, in history, the tasks that teachers set do not require pupils to apply concepts at depth, such as historical significance.”
- “The school recognises that there are a very small minority of pupils with challenging behaviour who, on occasion, affect the learning of others.”
