Quick insights from ofsted Powered by AI
This insight was generated by AI, based on latest Ofsted report.
Foundational Skills: Teaching ensures that pupils develop good literacy and numeracy skills which they use well across different subjects.
Success of the Curriculum: Recent developments in the curriculum are already having a positive effect on pupils’ learning by strengthening links between subjects and making learning more purposeful.
Areas Needing Improvement: Work is too hard for some less able pupils in a small number of lessons.
Performance in Maths & Reading: The percentage making expected or better than expected progress compares favourably with national figures.
Support for Falling Behind: Good use is made of support outside lessons to help pupils who are in danger of falling behind to catch up.
Behaviour and Attitudes: Pupils develop good social skills, behave well, and have good manners. They have good attitudes towards learning and enjoy school.
Support for SEND Pupils: Effective support outside lessons is sharply focused on improving key skills, although progress slows in a few lessons because work is too hard.
Managing Bullying and Pupil Safety: Pupils feel very safe at school. They are confident that bullying is tackled quickly.
Promotion of Welfare and Safety: The school keeps pupils safe. Road safety officers play a good part in teaching pupils about danger.
Parent Feedback: Some parents are unhappy with the rapid change in staff. A new parent forum gives parents and carers good opportunities to voice their concerns.
Impact on Student Progress: Teaching supports rapid improvement in pupils’ reading, writing, communication, and mathematics in most lessons.
Teaching Staff Challenges: In a small number of lessons, work is pitched at too high a level for less able and some disabled pupils.
Assessment of Teaching Quality: There are inconsistencies in the quality of marking and target setting.
