Ofsted
Good Inspected 17 October 2023
Strengths
- “Pupils and parents value the ‘family feel’ of the school and how welcoming it is.”
- “Pupils who join mid-year say that they settled quickly because of the care that they receive.”
- “Other pupils value the school’s sense of ‘community and togetherness’.”
To improve
- “However, the school recognises that, as yet, not all pupils learn as well as they could.”
- “However, sometimes the work given to pupils does not always help them to learn as much of the ambitious curriculum as the school intends.”
- “In addition, while there are regular checks on what pupils know and understand, these are not always used accurately to identify what some pupils need to do next.”
