Strengths
- “Pupils are happy in their school.”
- “Everyone is made to feel welcome here because pupils treat each other with respect.”
- “Pupils value their positive relationships with one another and adults.”
To improve
- “In some subjects, teachers do not consistently provide pupils with opportunities to develop their understanding of subject-specific vocabulary and how to apply it to their learning.”
- “This means that sometimes pupils do not deepen their knowledge and skills consistently well.”
