Strengths
- “Pupils look forward to coming to school because they feel safe and well cared for here.”
- “Pupils are greeted warmly by leaders and staff when they arrive in the morning, whether this be by organised transport or with parents and carers.”
- “Pupils form secure, caring, professional relationships with staff.”
To improve
- “However, while pupils generally achieve well, there are times when teaching does not match the school's expectations for pupils' learning.”
- “This leads to variation and inconsistencies in pupils' experience of teaching.”
- “Leaders have an accurate understanding of the strengths in the 16 to 19 study programme and the areas that require further development, including, for example, the need to embed greater consistency in sixth-form teaching.”
