Strengths
- “Fitzjohn’s Primary School is a harmonious community of happy pupils and adults.”
- “The school’s values of resilience, respect, curiosity, excellence, individuality and responsibility are well embedded.”
- “Pupils know the importance of the school’s values, and they are lived out in how pupils behave towards each other.”
To improve
- “Leaders have rightly identified that some subjects need further development.”
- “In these areas, the subject-specific knowledge and skills that pupils need to know and remember are not as clearly identified.”
- “As a result, the activities chosen do not consistently help pupils to deepen their knowledge and understanding over time.”
