Quick insights from ofsted Powered by AI
This insight was generated by AI, based on latest Ofsted report.
Foundational Skills: Staff have real expertise for teaching early reading and leaders make sure that they have regular training.
Success of the Curriculum: Leaders have rightly focused on creating a thoughtful curriculum with a focus on communication, citizenship and health. Pupils achieve well.
Areas Needing Improvement: In a few subjects, the content is too broad and so pupils struggle to remember the detail of what they have been learning.
Performance in Maths & Reading: Inspectors carried out deep dives in these subjects: reading, mathematics, science and history and found good depth of knowledge in most subjects.
Support for Falling Behind: Frequent checks identify any pupils who need additional support. They then get opportunities to keep up through quick and regular practice.
Behaviour and Attitudes: There is an inclusive ethos. Pupils are kind and respectful towards each other.
Support for SEND Pupils: Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are supported well. Identification of pupils’ needs is swift and accurate.
Managing Bullying and Pupil Safety: The arrangements for safeguarding are effective.
Promotion of Welfare and Safety: The well-being team knows the community well. This is having a positive impact on attendance and levels of persistent absence have fallen rapidly.
Parent Feedback: Parents and carers say they are very happy with the changes to the school because staff help their children to be confident and happy.
Parental Involvement: Parents can give feedback using Ofsted Parent View.
Extracurricular Activities: There are many clubs on offer including cricket, choir and computing, as well as music lessons and science challenges.
Outdoor Facilities: Pupils take their roles on the school council and in the community seriously. They visit care homes to read stories and play games with residents.
Teacher Engagement: The school has provided support and training for teachers to implement curriculum changes in classes.
Impact on Student Progress: Staff are committed to broadening pupils’ horizons. This ambition is realised through the wide range of extra-curricular opportunities available.
Assessment of Teaching Quality: Leaders have rightly focused on developing well-defined, consistent expectations and systems.
