Strengths
- “Pupils at this school are happy and well cared for.”
- “They thrive in a nurturing environment where they feel safe and valued.”
- “Pupils trust the adults around them to help whenever they face concerns or worries.”
To improve
- “However, some teaching does not check if pupils fully understand what they have learned before introducing new content.”
- “At times, learning moves on before some pupils are ready, which reduces how securely these pupils understand important subject content.”
