Strengths
- “Pupils thrive in this happy and supportive school.”
- “Staff have high expectations for all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).”
- “Leaders have successfully created an aspirational community in which pupils achieve well in their learning.”
To improve
- “In a small number of subjects, the school does not identify precisely the knowledge and skills it needs pupils to learn, or the order in which they should learn these.”
- “Consequently, int these subjects, teacher’s checks on pupils’ learning are not as effective as they might be.”
