Ofsted
School remains Good Inspected 19 April 2023
Strengths
- “Pupils enjoy coming to school.”
- “They especially like the different leadership roles they can take on.”
- “For example, the pupils who act as restorative ambassadors make a significant contribution to resolving minor playground disagreements.”
To improve
- “However, in a small number of subjects, some pupils cannot remember some essential subject knowledge.”
- “Pupils, instead, recall the activity they have done, rather than what they have learned.”
- “This is because teachers are sometimes not clear about what pupils are expected to learn.”
