Strengths
- “Pupils appreciate the wider opportunities their school provides, like learning to surf on the Kent coast.”
- “One pupil, echoing the views of many, said: ‘Teachers are kind, and they help you when you are stuck with your learning.”
- “Leaders are ambitious for all pupils.”
To improve
- “In a few subjects, leaders have not precisely identified the specific knowledge that should be taught for pupils to build up the deep body of knowledge that they need.”
- “In the curriculum for early years, leaders do not ensure that children have sufficiently well-targeted opportunities to develop strength and coordination in the use of their fingers, wrists and arms.”
- “As a result, some older pupils have not acquired the basic physical skills they need.”
