Strengths
- “Pupils really enjoy coming to this school.”
- “They take pride in telling visitors about what they are learning and about all the exciting things they do.”
- “During breaktimes, pupils especially like the way that they can play in different ‘zones’.”
To improve
- “Nevertheless, there are times when the activities that pupils complete do not match precisely with what they are expected to learn.”
- “However, there are times when the work pupils are given does not link well with what they are expected to learn.”
- “This reduces the effectiveness of the school’s work to ensure that pupils securely recall and understand key ideas.”
