Ofsted:

"Pupils are happy to come to school. They enjoy making friends and they are supportive of each other". 

"Pupils appreciate the support and care that is provided by staff. This helps pupils to feel safe".

"…pupils engage positively with their learning. As a result, behaviour in class and during social times is usually calm and orderly".

"Subject curriculums are well designed. The ‘powerful knowledge’ that the school wants pupils to learn is clearly identified. Subject content is introduced in a logical order so that pupils build their knowledge over time".

"Teachers have good subject knowledge. They select appropriate activities to support pupils to learn the intended curriculum". 

"The school has introduced a rigorous and well-structured approach to assessment. This supports staff to deliver the curriculum effectively, pre-empting pupils’ difficulties, identifying misconceptions and gaps in pupils’ knowledge and then using this information to plan for future learning".

The school’s behaviour management system is underpinned by the trust’s values, including ‘be yourself always’ and ‘succeeding together’…pupils live up to these values and are considerate towards each other. 

"Learning is rarely disrupted by poor behaviour".
