Ofsted
School remains Good Inspected 22 February 2023
Strengths
- “Leaders have high expectations for pupils.”
- “Pupils are happy and have a successful experience at school.”
- “Leaders are ambitious for all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).”
To improve
- “However, leaders rightly recognise that the curriculum in some foundation subjects is not embedded as effectively as it is others.”
- “However, the new reading curriculum has been slower to have an impact in key stage 2, where a small minority of pupils do not read as fluently as they should.”
- “However, teachers do not consistently check how well all pupils can remember their learning.”
