Not judged Inspected 25 March 2025

Strengths

“A warm welcome awaits pupils and their families when they arrive at school, and this sets the scene for the remainder of the day.”
“Cheerful voices can be heard, for instance wishing others a ‘good morning’, asking ‘how are you today?’ or hoping that ‘you enjoy your day’.”
“These voices are just as likely to be pupils speaking to adults as they are adults checking on pupils.”

To improve

“However, the school does not ensure that staff adapt work effectively when pupils find their work difficult.”
“As a result, some pupils with SEND are not able to work towards the same learning outcomes as their classmates.”
“However, in some of its work, the school has not thought enough about how to prepare pupils for life in a diverse society.”
