School remains Good Inspected 18 May 2023
Strengths
- “Although split across two sites, the school is a friendly, close-knit and welcoming community.”
- “Relationships between staff and pupils are built on mutual respect.”
- “Pupils try to live out the school’s values of being responsible, respectful, resilient, optimistic, caring and creative.”
To improve
- “However, occasionally, teaching does not focus fully on helping pupils to recall prior knowledge accurately.”
- “Consequently, from time to time, some pupils struggle to remember aspects of learning.”
- “This makes it harder for them to make links between new knowledge and previous learning.”
