School Description

The leadership team has maintained the good quality of education in the school since the previous inspection. Based on the evidence gathered during this short inspection, I am of the opinion that the school has demonstrated strong practice and marked improvement in specific areas. This may indicate that the school has improved significantly overall. Therefore, I am recommending that the school’s next inspection be a section 5 inspection. The school is very well led and managed. You, leaders and governors use your clear understanding of the quality of education you provide to address any areas for development you identify. You ensure that this knowledge is used to continue to improve the school. Leaders have effectively tackled the areas for improvement identified in the previous inspection. Leadership is strong at all levels. All staff are coached and encouraged to develop their practice and leadership skills. As they benefit from a range of professional development opportunities, staff are highly motivated, professional and effective. Training records are checked regularly to ensure that staff receive appropriate training to enable them to continue to deliver high-quality learning experiences to all pupils. The school has a positive and inclusive culture based around a strong signbilingual philosophy. Pupils are confident, polite, respectful and friendly. Older pupils take care of younger children and the rights of children and pupils are at the heart of a tailored and appropriate curriculum.
