Strengths

- “The school motto, ‘one family, following Christ, learning together, making a difference’, is central to the school’s work.”
- “Pupils love reading and they have access to a wide range of books.”
To improve
- “However, support for some pupils with specific needs is not always as sharply focused as it could be.”
- “However, they do not have enough opportunities to practise these skills when working independently.”
- “However, the curriculum is not always adapted well enough or as carefully tailored as it could be to meet the needs of pupils with additional needs.”
