School Description

The leadership team has maintained the good quality of education in the school since the last inspection. You and your team have established a warm and welcoming learning environment. The building and grounds are well maintained. There are colourful and vibrant displays around the school. These celebrate pupils’ own work, which is of good quality and shows a wide range of curriculum subjects and other activities. Displays also support pupils’ understanding about diversity and British values. There are strong relationships between pupils and staff. The school’s values are key to the work of the school. Leaders display these throughout both buildings in a way that children and staff can understand. The school’s motto, ‘BEST – Believe Enjoy Succeed Together’, sums up the school’s sense of ambition. Staff model respect for pupils and promote it as a key value in school. Pupils respond positively and typically show respect in return. You have addressed the areas for improvement successfully that inspectors identified in the previous inspection. You have developed the curriculum well so that pupils now have many opportunities to learn literacy and mathematical skills appropriate to their needs. For example, pupils in key stage 2 use their understanding of instructional texts to follow directions in learning dance moves.
