Ofsted
School remains Good Inspected 22 November 2023
Strengths
- “Pupils value this school’s kind and caring ethos.”
- “They state that everyone is very welcome.”
- “The school is determined that all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), learn the knowledge and skills they need to be successful.”
To improve
- “However, in a few subjects, the important knowledge that pupils need to learn is not always identified precisely enough.”
- “This means that teachers are not clear what to teach and when.”
- “Furthermore, some parts of the curriculum are not sequenced in the most sensible order so that pupils can build understanding systematically.”
