Quick insights from ofsted Powered by AI
This insight was generated by AI, based on latest Ofsted report.
Foundational Skills: Pupils develop their reading, writing and speaking and listening skills effectively.
Success of the Curriculum: Standards in reading skills have now overtaken those in writing as a result of the school’s focus in the last year.
Areas Needing Improvement: Insufficient opportunities are taken to reinforce numeracy skills in other subjects.
Support for Falling Behind: Pupils with disabilities or special educational needs achieve well because of the well-targeted support provided.
Behaviour and Attitudes: Responses from parental and pupil questionnaires confirm the inspectors’ judgement that the good behaviour seen in lessons and around the school is typical.
Performance in Maths & Reading: Improvements in mathematics have continued with a greater proportion of pupils working at higher levels.
Support for SEND Pupils: Pupils with disabilities or special educational needs achieve well because of the well-targeted support provided in most lessons or in separate intervention groups.
Managing Bullying and Pupil Safety: Incidents of disruption in lessons or bullying are very rare. Pupils affirm that these are managed effectively.
Promotion of Welfare and Safety: The safety of pupils is given high priority. Good health and well-being are promoted through personal and social curriculum elements.
Parent Feedback: Parents and carers are very positive about the school and its work.
Parental Involvement: The school has strengthened its links with parents and carers through the appointment of a pastoral worker and a bilingual member of staff who supports home-school communication.
Extracurricular Activities: A wide range of visits, visitors, and extra-curricular clubs, including a choir that performed at the education fair for parents during the inspection.
Teacher Engagement: Teachers have high expectations and most are effective in encouraging pupils to learn through interesting and challenging tasks.
Impact on Student Progress: Teachers regularly check how well pupils are doing in lessons and generally intervene effectively to correct misunderstandings or push on the pace of learning as needed.
Teaching Staff Challenges: Variation in the pace of learning as pupils are not always sufficiently active in their learning or the work set does not challenge them enough.
Assessment of Teaching Quality: The monitoring roles of middle leaders are not currently focused enough to have a strong impact in all year groups.
