Who are Ofsted and what do they do?

Ofsted is the Office for Standards in Education, Children’s Services and Skills. They report directly to Parliament and are independent and impartial. They inspect and regulate services which care for children and young people, and those providing education and skills for learners of all ages.

The most recent assessment by Ofsted inspectors was in November 2023, when they carried out a full inspection. The school was graded to be GOOD in all areas. Download the report here.

“In this harmonious school, pupils embody the school values of friendship, integrity, respect and effort. This shows in the way they care for each other. One pupil said, ‘We need to be kind as we don’t always know what someone is going through.’ Parents appreciate how well staff know their children..”

“There are high expectations for all pupils to achieve their best, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).

Pupils learn a broad, ambitious curriculum from Reception to Year 6. The curriculum has been carefully sequenced to ensure that pupils’ knowledge builds year on year.”

“Pupils behave well and feel safe in school. Bullying is rare. Pupils are confident that staff will help them resolve any problems.”

“Pupils are confident, fluent readers. This is due to the determination of the school that pupils will love to read. Children get off to a strong start in Reception, where they learn phonics from day one.”
