Strengths

- “They care about one another and treat each other with the utmost kindness and respect.”
- “The playground is a friendly and fun place for pupils to play, with older pupils supporting younger ones to enjoy their breaktimes.”
To improve
- “In Years 1 to 6, very occasionally, teachers’ understanding of how new subject content links together with previous and future learning is less secure.”
- “This means that, at times, teaching does not support pupils’ progression as well as it could.”
