We were inspected in June 2026 under the new inspection framework. We were given some next steps which we are working on. We were particularly happy that the hard work that we do in ensuring that our children are safe and happy in school was recognised.
Within the section "What it's like to be a pupil at this school". Ofsted stated many strengths of the school:
- Pupils enter school happily each day. Their absence rates are reducing because of the actions that leaders take. Pupils typically settle to their work, ready to learn, in a calm, purposeful learning environment.
- Pupils across the school enjoy their learning and benefit from an ambitious curriculum.
- Pupils enjoy social times where they play well together. Some attend the school's breakfast club where they enjoy being with friends and which helps them to get into school on time.
- Pupils take part in a wide range of after-school activities, including cheerleading, curling and gardening. They win competitions, including a recent golf tournament. A large number of pupils, including those with SEND and those who face challenge in their lives, take part in the enriching activities provided.
- Pupils have positive relationships with each other and with staff. There is always a trusted adult who can help them at times of need.
- Pupils are able to access the rainbow room or the indoor playroom, where they can have a quieter lunchtime. Any bullying is dealt with swiftly by staff.
- Pupils are supported to sort out any differences of opinion. They are happy and safe. They know how to keep themselves safe online, in their school and in the local community.
