Strengths
- “Halley Primary School is for everyone.”
- “Leaders go out of their way to include all pupils, especially those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), in the fun and excitement of learning.”
- “Teachers make learning interesting by giving pupils work that helps them to think for themselves.”
To improve
- “Despite the strengths in the curriculum, particularly in breadth and ambition, there are some weaknesses in the way it is put into practice.”
- “In some subjects, such as design and technology, the delivery of the curriculum is not precise enough to ensure that pupils are enabled to reach the high aspirations set out in leaders’ curriculum thinking.”
- “Sometimes, this is because teachers’ subject knowledge lacks depth.”
