Strengths
- “A strong sense of community exists at Maryland School.”
- “Pupils are incredibly kind and respectful towards one another.”
- “They understand what is special about their school and work hard to demonstrate the school’s values of resilience, teamwork and respect.”
To improve
- “However, sometimes adults do not model language effectively, and as a result, they do not extend children’s vocabulary or sentence structure.”
- “This means that children miss out on opportunities to hear and practise new language.”
- “However, sometimes the strategies for pupils with education, health and care (EHC) plans are not enacted in lessons to ensure that pupils with SEND make progress against their individual targets and across the curriculum.”
