Strengths
- “As they arrive at school each morning, pupils happily and energetically make their way in, warmly greeted by staff, school prefects and Leo, the school dog.”
- “They enjoy learning and the wide range of opportunities available, including clubs, educational and cultural trips, visiting speakers and theatres, and the annual school talent competition.”
- “Pupils benefit from respectful, nurturing and caring relationships with staff.”
To improve
- “Often, these pupils experience significant barriers to learning and/or wellbeing.”
- “However, at times some pupils, including disadvantaged pupils with higher starting points, do not consistently make the progress of which they are capable.”
- “However, on occasion, some teaching does not set work that is ambitious enough to deepen the knowledge and understanding of pupils who have already mastered the core learning.”
