Strengths
- “Pupils in this school are kind and considerate.”
- “They are kept safe because teachers always help and support them.”
- “Pupils know that if they have any worries staff will listen to them.”
To improve
- “However, in some subjects, the expectations of what pupils will learn in some units of work are not precisely set out.”
- “Where this is the case, the curriculum is not delivered in the way that leaders intend, and pupils do not achieve as well as they could.”
