Strengths
- “Sherington Primary School is a vibrant community that is full of singing, music, art and sculpture.”
- “Pupils said they enjoy coming to school and feel safe.”
- “They particularly value the many wider opportunities, including an exciting residential trip to Wales in Year 6, where they learn outdoor rock climbing.”
To improve
- “On occasion, however, children are busy and purposefully taking part in activities that have an insufficient focus on the learning set out in the curriculum.”
- “There are some occasions, however, when staff do not check that pupils with SEND have a sufficiently secure understanding of important concepts.”
- “When this happens, pupils with SEND do not fully understand the basic ideas necessary to grasp the new concepts they are being taught.”
