Strengths
- “Pupils flourish in this friendly primary school, which has a strong community feel.”
- “Pupils understand and share these goals.”
- “They learn how to achieve them through a carefully designed curriculum, which includes a focus on how to stick at learning even when it is difficult.”
To improve
- “However, there are occasions when some pupils are asked to tackle work that is too difficult for them.”
- “This means that the curriculum is not implemented as well in a small number of subjects.”
- “As a result, there are instances when pupils do not progress as well through the curriculum as intended.”
