School remains Good Inspected 21 July 2022
Strengths
- “Pupils are happy and safe here.”
- “They learn in a positive and nurturing environment.”
- “Leaders have high expectations of all pupils.”
To improve
- “Occasionally, leaders’ emphasis on linking learning in English, mathematics and science with other subjects detracts from the key subject content that pupils need to know in those subjects.”
- “However, teachers do not routinely check that pupils have securely understood and learned new content before moving on to new work.”
- “Although pupils speak with confidence about the books they read with their teachers, some pupils do not read widely outside of school.”
