School Description

Pupils do not receive an acceptable standard of education at this school. Leaders’ lack of focus on the quality of education means that they have not identified the weaknesses that exist. Leaders’ actions have not resulted in a well-sequenced curriculum. As a result, pupils do not have the necessary knowledge and skills to be ready for the next stage of their education. Pupils feel safe and are safe at this school. However, behaviour is not consistently good. While most pupils behave well, some do not. Pupils are not clear about the rules and expectations that leaders have of them. When bullying happens, pupils are confident to tell adults, but their concerns are not always dealt with swiftly and effectively. Most parents and pupils say that bullying is rare. Pupils develop their talents and interests through the clubs they attend. They develop their sense of citizenship through activities such as fundraising events. They also take on leadership roles within the school from Year 1. Experiences such as forest school, caring for the school goats, sporting events and trips all contribute positively to pupils’ personal development. However, pupils do not know about different faiths or cultures that are different to their own. Consequently, they are not as well prepared for life in modern Britain as they could be.
