School Description

Pupils do not learn as effectively as they should because the curriculum is not well planned. While English and mathematics have improved, teaching in some subjects is not good enough. Most other subjects need improving further so pupils can learn well. Not all pupils secure essential literacy and numeracy skills. There are gaps in pupils’ learning in reading, writing and mathematics. Not enough is done to prepare pupils in Year 6 for the next stage of their education. Pupils’ personal development is not promoted well enough. Personal, social and health education (PSHE) lessons do not ensure that pupils gain an understanding of British values, and the lives of people from different, diverse backgrounds. The teaching of relationships and sex education (RSE) does not give pupils a full understanding of healthy relationships. Pupils enjoy school. The majority attend regularly. Relationships between staff and pupils are positive. Most pupils are polite and pleasant, and they behave themselves. A minority of older pupils do not behave well enough. Pupils say that they feel safe. They feel free from bullying. All pupils, especially those who are disadvantaged or have special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), are provided with effective pastoral care.
