Strengths
- “Pupils are proud to be members of this diverse school community.”
- “They are safe and happy and know that staff listen to them.”
- “They can name a trusted adult they would speak to if they have any concerns.”
To improve
- “However, in some other subjects, methods for checking what pupils know and can do are less developed.”
- “In these subjects, pupils’ misconceptions are sometimes missed, and they do not develop a secure and deep understanding.”
