Strengths
- “Parents and carers are very positive about this school.”
- “They describe it as a ‘family’.”
- “They say that their children are achieving well, both academically and in their personal development.”
To improve

- “Sometimes, what pupils will learn is not as precisely identified and well sequenced as it could be.”
- “This means that teachers choose activities that can lack a focus on subject-specific learning.”
