Ofsted & SIAMS
'Teachers are highly knowledgeable and teach lessons that are very well planned, challenging and interesting. By the time pupils leave Year 6, attainment in English and mathematics is above the national average.'
'Teachers have high expectations of their pupils' behaviour and attitudes to work, which lead to excellent progress.'
'Pupils are highly confident and articulate. Their behaviour is exemplary, both in class and around the school. They show superb attitudes to their learning.'
'Leaders provide a broad, balanced and exciting curriculum that enables pupils to gain deep knowledge, understanding and skills across all subjects and year groups.'
'Governors are clearly highly ambitious for the school. They have very strong relationships with leaders, other staff and pupils, and make frequent visits to ensure that they maintain an excellent view of standards.'
'Teachers ask questions that are highly effective in encouraging pupils to think deeply about their learning. They challenge pupils from all groups, including the most able, to explain their thinking, and provide activities that extend and deepen their learning.'
'Pupils who have SEN and/or disabilities receive excellent support.'
'The executive headteacher and the head of school are very capable and have a clear view of how to sustain the high standards of education the school provides.'
