OFSTED REPORTS AND INFORMATION
Please find our most recent OFSTED report here.
“The school’s Christian motto of ‘let your light shine’ is present in every aspect of school life. Pupils beam with happiness to learn in a place where staff ensure that all pupils show care and respect for each other. Pupils are proud of the inclusive culture of their school. They learn that it is important for everyone to feel welcome. This means that bullying is very rare and any incidents are quickly resolved. Pupils behave very well. The school’s ‘SHINE’ behaviours make it clear what staff expect. All staff consistently model what these behaviours look like, so pupils understand how to comply .” OFSTED OCTOBER 2022

BEHAVIOUR POLICY
Behaviour Policy (High Expectations for Learning Policy).PUPIL PREMIUM EXPENDITURE
The pupil premium grant is additional funding for publicly funded schools in England. It’s a school-level grant that gives schools extra resources to help them meet challenges, including those arising from deprivation.
It’s allocated for schools to:
- improve the academic outcomes of disadvantaged pupils of all abilities
- close the attainment gap between disadvantaged pupils and their peers across the country

PE AND SPORTS PREMIUM
Schools use Sports Premium funding to make additional and sustainable improvements to the quality of Physical Education, Sport and physical activity that they offer.
Please find our latest evidence and impact report for our use of Sports Premium here.
CATCH UP PREMIMUM EXPENDITURE
Children and young people across the country have experienced unprecedented disruption to their education as a result of coronavirus (COVID-19). The catch-up premium is funded on a per pupil basis at £80 per pupil. This funding is based on the number of pupils in school.
The school has the job of deciding the best way to spend this money. Before allocating this money, we used the Education Endowment Foundation support guide to investigate evidence-based approaches to catch up for all children.
As the catch-up premium has been designed to mitigate the effects of the unique disruption caused by coronavirus (COVID-19), the grant will only be available for the 2020 to 2021 academic year. It will not be added to schools’ baselines in calculating future years’ funding allocations.
