Ofsted
Good Inspected 20 June 2023
Strengths
- “Leaders’ successful work to embed high standards of behaviour across the school mean pupils feel safe and enjoy being in the calm environment around school.”
- “Pupils know the high expectations of leaders which are strongly based on their values of ‘Respect, Responsibility and Resilience’.”
- “These have been carefully established, and pupils understand how to achieve them.”
To improve
- “Although teachers generally use assessment well to measure pupils’ progress, they do not routinely identify the specific gaps in pupils’ knowledge.”
- “This means that subsequent teaching and revisiting of topics is not always informed by an understanding of what pupils know and what they need to learn next.”
- “Absence is currently too high, and this is a barrier to some pupils’ learning.”
