What does the school do well and what does it need to do better?
The school has developed a curriculum that is interesting and engaging. Learning builds on what pupils have learned before in a highly sophisticated way, starting in the early years. Pupils talk about what they have learned with confidence and enthusiasm.
They are highly interested in learning because lessons are engaging. The school ensures all staff are highly skilled to enable them to deliver these to the highest standard. Any adaptations made to support pupils with SEND are effective so they can learn effectively alongside their peers.
The school threads moral and social education very well through all aspects of the curriculum. Pupils are encouraged to think deeply about the actions of historical and current day figures and how lessons can be learned from their actions. Pupils can do this with impressive maturity, even at a young age.
Pupils learn to read without delay. Phonics teaching supports all pupils to do so confidently. Pupils can apply their skills to decode unknown words with limited adult support.
This leads to pupils becoming confident and capable readers. Pupils read widely for enjoyment, as well as enjoying books shared with them by staff. The books they choose are ambitious, both in terms of content and structure.
They relish the opportunity to choose their favourite books from the beautifully refurbished library.

Pupils' character development is at the heart of the school's work. The school adopts a range of approaches to ensures pupils are fully prepared for life in modern Britain.
They teach pupils about religions, cultures and lifestyles that differ from their own. They understand, accept and celebrate difference. Every pupil has the chance to take on a junior leadership role during their time at school.
This helps them to understand the power of their voice, how it can be used for good and to affect positive change. It is a praiseworthy aspect of the school's work and helps them develop into the respectful pupils that they are.
The school is very well led.
Staff work together as a highly performing team. They feel very well supported and trained to provide the best education they can. Governors are committed, skilled and insightful.
