Strengths
- “Whitley Abbey Primary School is a happy, friendly place.”
- “Whether pupils are new to the school or the country, they are quickly made to feel welcome.”
- “Pupils are proud of their school.”
To improve
- “They know that changes to the curriculum have not had time to impact fully on pupils’ results.”
- “However, in a small number of subjects, new subject leaders do not yet have the expertise to be able to check how well their curriculum plans are being implemented.”
- “However, there are some small inconsistencies in the way that this is delivered, mainly due to changes in staffing.”
