Ofsted

Lakeside was inspected by Ofsted in November 2023 and has remained a Good school. We are exceptionally proud of the feedback given in the report which included-   

'From the nurturing nursery to studious Year 6 classrooms, pupils welcome everyone with a smile to the new site of their joyful school.' 

'The school has supported teachers to establish high expectations for all.'

'Leaders ensure that all pupils, especially disadvantaged pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), access the full curriculum.'

'High-quality pastoral provision helps pupils with anxiety and emotional needs. Pupils feel safe and speak highly of the care they receive from staff.'

'Reading is embedded across school life, with many subjects taking inspiration from high quality texts.'

'Trust leaders have supported teachers impressively to implement a well-designed curriculum which engages pupils. Every subject is planned with small steps of precisely identified knowledge. These steps are routinely revisited with pupils to help them remember their learning long term.'

'The inclusion leader works with staff to identify needs and evaluate the progress of every pupil. Together, they identify when extra help is needed. Pupils with SEND learn to work independently as a result of well-considered support in class.'

'Pupils show respect and compassion, with strong focus in lessons.'

'Pupils learn life skills, including how to keep themselves safe. They explore moral issues to prepare them for life in modern Britain.'

'The school is strengthening its work to win everyone’s trust and confidence in this thriving school.'
