Leaders want pupils to learn to ‘be kind, be safe and be ready’ for life. Pupils enjoy attending this school, and they feel safe here. They have good relationships with staff. Pupils say teachers help them with any problems they may have. Bullying is rare. If it happens, adults deal with it quickly. The school is mostly calm and orderly. Sometimes, when pupils are moving around the school, behaviour is less calm. Leaders ensure that pupils are supported well. Most pupils behave appropriately. They have good attendance and are punctual. Some pupils spend a significant proportion of their time out of lessons. They are allowed to leave lessons when they feel unsettled. This interrupts their learning. Pupils told inspectors that some pupils misbehave. However, they stated that, overall, behaviour is improving in school. Curriculum development is underway. In some lessons, pupils disengage from learning. Leaders are developing processes to prepare pupils for adulthood. Younger pupils do not have a good understanding of their next steps or careers education. Opportunities for pupils to learn about cultures other than their own are limited. The curriculum does not develop pupils’ knowledge of life in modern Britain securely. Staff do not have sufficient subject knowledge to deliver the schools’ curriculum effectively. Leaders have begun to provide staff with additional training to support them in developing their subject knowledge across all subjects. Early career teachers are well supported. They receive regular coaching to develop their practice. Most pupils speak confidently about what they have learned. Some pupils have gaps in their knowledge. Leaders are developing systems to address these gaps in learning in order to help pupils to know more and remember more.
