Quick insights from ofsted Powered by AI
This insight was generated by AI, based on latest Ofsted report.
Success of the Curriculum: The revamped curriculum now specifies what pupils must learn and when. Higher expectations are being stated clearly.
Foundational Skills: Leaders have established an agreed way to teach phonics and early reading, though not all staff have sufficient expertise.
Areas Needing Improvement: Some teachers lack strong subject knowledge, and the kindergarten's curriculum oversight is insufficient.
Behaviour and Attitudes: Pupils are attentive, and overly chatty behaviour is managed well. Kindergarten needs better behaviour support.
Performance in Maths & Reading: Pupils learn Spanish very well; however, the implementation of the curriculum in maths and reading is inconsistent.
Support for Falling Behind: Extra support for learning phonics is precise and high-quality for some, but inconsistently applied.
Support for SEND Pupils: Training is taking place, but implementation of approaches for pupils with SEND is inconsistent.
Managing Bullying and Pupil Safety: Staff make detailed records of any concerns and feel confident in their actions. Safeguarding arrangements are effective.
Promotion of Welfare and Safety: Pupils feel safe, and the school meets all safeguarding requirements ensuring staff suitability.
Parent Feedback: Parents and carers are very positive about the school.
Extracurricular Activities: Extracurricular activities include chess club, woodwork, forest school, and eurythmy.
Teacher Engagement: Staff are very positive about leadership support and there is a strong sense of teamwork.
Impact on Student Progress: Teaching does not always build on what pupils already know. Curricular inconsistencies exist.
Teaching Staff Challenges: Some staff lack strong subject knowledge which impacts curriculum delivery.
Assessment of Teaching Quality: Implementation of a whole-school assessment system is beginning to show positive results.
