OFSTED Inspection Reports
Our most recent inspection by OFSTED was in February 2024. We were very proud when the Inspector determined that we continue to be a 'Good' school with, once again, many positive features highlighted in the inspection report. Highlights include:
- The inspector finding that our children are taught with “…enthusiasm and skill.” and through an “…ambitious curriculum.”
- Reading being found as a key priority in school and that “Most pupils enjoy reading.”
- The Inspector discovering our children are confident mathematicians and appreciate the value of Mathematics.
- Reference to “Children in EYFS learn in a caring and exciting environment.”
- The Inspector learning that our children “…feel safe and happy.”
- Children with SEND not only access all activities but also “…achieve well in line with their peers.”
- That the Inspector saw that ‘…pupils enjoy positive relationships with adults.” and that they are “…friendly and courteous.”
- That our staff told the Inspector that they’re proud to work in our school.
- That you, the parents, have ‘…full confidence in the school’.

Performance Data and Performance Tables
Our school has grown with our children and this meant that our first Year 6 cohort was in the academic year of 2019/20. Unfortunately, this year also saw the global Covid-19 pandemic. One impact of the pandemic was the amount of in-school education missed by children (around the world) and, as a result, statutory assessments were paused. As we become used to a post-pandemic world, some of these assessments have returned. Please find our latest performance data in the side-bar on the right.
