Ofsted Report 2024
I am delighted to be able to share the outcome of our recent Ofsted inspection with you, which took place on 11th and 12th June 2024. As this was an ungraded inspection the outcome states that we continue to be a good school.
The inspector praised many aspects of our wonderful school, including the following:
• Pupils thrive and are happy at this caring and nurturing school. They noted that relationships between adults and pupils are strong and respectful.
• Pupils are curious and keen learners and they achieve well. By the time that they leave the school in Year 6, pupils are well prepared for the demands of the key stage 3 curriculum.
• The school prioritises reading. It helps pupils to develop a love of reading from an early age. Older pupils spoke enthusiastically about the books that they have read and enjoyed.
• Pupils behave well. In the early years, children settle quickly into school routines. Older pupils enjoy working and playing alongside younger pupils, acting as strong role models.
• Pupils benefit from the wide-ranging experiences that the school provides to enrich their personal development.
• Staff enjoy working at the school. They benefit from strong teamwork and support to fulfil their roles effectively.
• The school has created an open and positive culture around safeguarding that puts pupils’ interests first.
Such an outcome would not have been possible without the hard work of our children, the dedication of our staff and governors and the support from our parents and carers. This report is a testament to the partnerships that make our school such a wonderful place for both children and staff to ‘Let their Light Shine’.
