Highlights from Latest Inspection
Christ the King Roman Catholic school provides a warm, inclusive learning environment for its pupils.
The sense of belonging to the school community is a strength of the school. The school promotes its values well, linked to its motto, 'Learning to love, loving to learn'. The school is developing its curriculum to focus on important concepts and to engage and stimulate nearly all learners.
The school makes effective use of its extensive outdoor provision, including a forest school area. Recent improvements to reading provision, including a new library, enable pupils to read for pleasure independently. Staff promote pupils' health and well-being diligently.
There are strong opportunities for pupils to develop their... physical skills, both in lessons and in the range of extra-curricular clubs on offer. Although the curriculum is sufficiently broad, the school has not yet developed aspects of the Expressive Arts systematically enough. Staff encourage pupils to become ambitious, confident learners.
There are particularly beneficial opportunities for pupils to develop their oracy and thinking skills. There are regular opportunities for pupils to discuss and debate matters of topical interest. The pupil participation groups, which form the school's Senedd, are very effective in bringing about positive changes in the school.
In these groups, pupils use their own ideas to consider wider aspects of school life and beyond, such as health and nutrition and how to help the local community. However, in lessons, opportunities for pupils to influence how and what they learn are too limited. The headteacher ensures that all staff have beneficial opportunities for professional development so that they can fulfil their roles and support school improvements confidently.
Leaders and governors monitor pupil progress and the improvements the school makes conscientiously. They listen to pupils and take the view of parents into account when deciding how best to move the school forward. All staff work very well as a team.
They encourage their pupils and know them well. This contributes to the supportive and caring ethos in the school and helps new pupils to settle into the school successfully. Recommendations R1 Further develop the school's curriculum to ensure suitable progression across all areas of learning and experience R2 Extend opportunities for pupils to influence how and what they learn in lessons What happens next The school will draw up an action plan to address the recommendations from the inspection.
