Ofsted

School remains Good Inspected 15 February 2023

Strengths

“This school has a real community feel.”
“Care, nurture and pupils’ well-being are at the heart of what happens here.”
“Leaders have high ambitions for every pupil, including disadvantaged pupils and those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), and want all to be the best they can be.”

To improve

“However, at times, teachers do not spot quickly enough any gaps in knowledge and/or skills that persist and so move learning on before pupils are ready.”
“When this happens, teachers then do not adapt their teaching to address these misconceptions or close the gaps.”
“However, attendance is lower than leaders want it to be.”
