What does the school do well and what does it need to do better? (2)

 

"Staff make regular checks on pupils’ reading. This helps pupils to become confident and

fluent readers. Any pupils who fall behind benefit from effective support to catch up

quickly. Older pupils describe the genre, plot and characters they have discovered in

books they have read recently. Staff run a group to support parents so they know how to

support their child to read." - OFSTED 2024

"Staff help pupils to develop a mature understanding of relationships and feelings. Pupils

learn how to understand and regulate their own emotions. They receive a strong start in

the early years, learning how to share and take turns. Staff support pupils to understand

how their behaviour impacts others. Some pupils volunteer to support others in the

playground, for example by acting as sports leaders or leading play for the younger

children. The school carefully monitors behaviour and attendance. They know their pupils

and families well and are responsive to any concerns." - OFSTED 2024

"The school promotes pupils’ character development exceptionally well. Pupils respect each

other’s choices and embrace the diverse community of the school. For example, pupils

have been involved in projects to support families new to the country who speak English

as an additional language. The school provides a variety of wider opportunities that

develop children’s resilience, confidence and independence. There are a range of

extracurricular enrichment opportunities, including inclusive sports competitions for pupils with

 SEND." - OFSTED 2024


"The governing body and leaders are determined to provide the best possible experiences

for pupils. The school provides high-quality training to ensure that staff can develop their

professional expertise. Staff workload and well-being have been carefully considered by

leaders. Consequently, morale is high, and there is a strong team spirit.!" - OFSTED 2024
