2024 Inspection Grading and Findings
The school continues to be good.
What is it like to attend this school?
Pupils thrive in this happy and supportive school. They are proud of its inclusive ethos and
being a member of the ‘Christ Church family’. Staff work in very close partnership with
parents and carers and the community to deliver a positive experience for pupils. The
school’s mission statement of ‘have faith, take responsibility, show respect and achieve’ is
lived out daily by pupils and staff.
The school develops pupils’ knowledge and confidence through a broad and ambitious
curriculum. Pupils achieve well in their learning, which is also reflected in published
outcomes. This is because the school has high expectations for all pupils, including those
with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Pupils are well prepared for the
next stage of their education.
Pupils behave well both in lessons and around the school. They are motivated and show
respect and kindness towards adults and each other. Pupils say that bullying is rare and
that if it occurs, it is dealt with swiftly.
The school develops pupils’ independence and character. Pupils take on leadership
responsibilities. For example, they can be house captains and help at school clubs. Older
pupils listen to younger pupils read. Pupils appreciate the wide range of clubs they can
choose to attend. These include chess, choir, football, squash, and creative activities such
as the recently introduced ‘beyond blocks’ club.
