Strengths
- “Staff support pupils’ well-being at this welcoming and friendly school.”
- “Pupils report any concerns they have, and teachers sort them out quickly.”
- “This helps pupils to feel safe and comfortable at school.”
To improve
- “However, on occasion, some teachers do not check that pupils have understood what they are learning.”
- “This leads to teachers moving on to new content before pupils are ready in some instances.”
- “As a result, pupils sometimes forget important information, or make mistakes that are not corrected swiftly.”
