Strengths
- “Bonner Primary School is a very happy, friendly and inclusive place in which to learn.”
- “School leaders strive successfully to ensure that all pupils develop a sense of confidence, respect and a love of learning.”
- “Pupils work hard and achieve well.”
To improve
- “However, pupils do not remember important knowledge securely in some areas of the curriculum.”
- “This is because teachers do not always revisit important prior learning or consistently address misconceptions.”
- “However, staff sometimes do not pay enough attention to securing basic skills such as pencil grip and early letter formation.”
