School profile

The Matthew Arnold School

OFSTED 2024 noted that:
This is a school where pupils and staff are aspirational. Pupils know that the caring and attentive staff want the very best for them. They appreciate the improvements that the new headteacher and leadership team have introduced. This includes raised expectations for their learning and behaviour. Through the broad and balanced curriculum, pupils are
now learning more. They know what is expected of them, and the rules of being ‘Ready, Respectful and Safe’ permeate all aspects of school life. Pupils learn in calm and focused classrooms.
Our school values of : Respect, Kindness and Aspiration underpin all we do. Our school is therefore a school where we aspire for each child to aim high and achieve.
