Strengths
- “Pupils enjoy being part of the vibrant, multicultural community at Launcelot Primary.”
- “Many pupils join the school at different points in the year and from a wide range of countries. 'Language ambassadors' play an important role in welcoming new pupils and helping them to settle quickly.”
- “Pupils form trusting relationships with staff, which supports their smooth transition into school life.”
To improve
- “Variability in the quality of teaching means that some pupils do not secure the knowledge they need, including in early reading and mathematics, quickly enough.”
- “As a result, gaps in this essential knowledge limit the achievement of some pupils, including some who are disadvantaged and/or have special educational needs and/or disabilities.”
- “However, some adaptations in lessons are not precise enough to meet pupils’ needs.”
