Ofsted – the Office for Standards in Education – is the inspectorate for children and learners in England.
It is their job to contribute to the provision of better education and care through effective inspection and regulation. Our school was most recently inspected in January 2025; the report on their findings can be found by using the link below.
Staff, pupils and parents were delighted with the findings of the Ofsted inspector and we feel that this report truly reflects the position of the school at the present time.
What is it like to attend this school?
This is a flourishing community where everyone is welcomed and included. Pupils appreciate each other’s unique qualities. One pupil, reflecting the views of many, stated, ‘We may not be the same, but inside we have the same heart.’
High ambition permeates the school. This is reflected in pupils’ strong achievement, particularly in English and mathematics. The school’s interesting curriculum and staff’s skilful teaching inspire pupils to learn. This helps to foster a genuine love of learning. Pupils delight in celebrating their achievements, and those of their peers.
From their first days in school, staff’s nurturing approach means that pupils feel happy, safe and well cared for. Values such as kindness and friendship are lived out in daily life. These shine through pupils’ superb behaviour. Pupils relish leadership opportunities, for example by being a ‘bistro buddy’ or serving on the school council. This helps them to understand the notion of responsibility and what it means to be part of a community.
Rightly, parents and carers are full of praise for the education and care their children receive. One parent, typical of many, commented, ‘The school creates a safe, supportive and nurturing environment for children to challenge themselves and thrive.’
