Strengths
- “Pupils benefit from a nurturing environment.”
- “Staff prioritise pupils’ emotional well-being and pastoral care.”
- “The school fosters a strong sense of belonging through warm and respectful relationships between staff and pupils.”
To improve
- “However, there are instances when some pupils progress to more complex tasks before they are ready, while others are not moved on soon enough.”
- “This can limit how well some pupils learn the curriculum.”
- “Occasionally, some teaching activities create misconceptions or are not closely linked to the intended learning objectives.”
