The Treehouse School

Overview: The Treehouse School is a non-fee-paying primary school catering for pupils in Years 1 to 6 from the local area. The school is a registered charity and relies solely on fundraising, grants, and sponsorship to keep it running. Pupils are taught in mixed-age groups and the school does not have a religious denomination.

Strengths:

• Pupils are justifiably pleased to belong to their welcoming school, which nurtures their growth and celebrates their uniqueness.
• Pupils' behaviour is exemplary, and they display excellent attitudes to their learning.
• The school promotes pupils' interests and hobbies very well, and pupils take great pride in developing their skills.
• The school ensures that the education it provides has a tangible impact on pupils, and trustees have a clear oversight of the school's strengths and weaknesses.
• Staff morale is high, and they value their roles at the school and take great satisfaction in contributing to a supportive and collaborative team environment.

Areas to improve:

• The school has not identified precisely the sequence in which pupils should learn the important knowledge in a few subjects, which can lead to pupils not learning as well as they could.
• The school's work to ensure that pupils learn about different religions is too variable, and pupils have some gaps in their knowledge.

Safeguarding: The arrangements for safeguarding are effective.
