Strengths
- “Pupils enjoy attending Rose Lane Primary School.”
- “Much consideration has been given to pupils’ social and emotional development.”
- “This ensures pupils feel secure and are kept safe in school.”
To improve
- “While pupils learn effectively in some subjects, this is not consistent.”

- “For example, too many pupils do not read at the level expected for their age.”
