Strengths
- “Everyone feels welcome at Kingsthorne.”
- “Pupils are friendly and treat each other, staff and visitors with kindness.”
- “Pupils behave well in lessons and as they move around the school.”
To improve
- “It is too early for teachers to use the information they are gathering to check that pupils have fully learned the intended curriculum in these areas.”
- “Sometimes, especially when children are making their own choices about activities, adults do not model the use of language in a way that explores ideas and encourages the use of a wide vocabulary well enough.”
