Strengths
- “Pupils speak warmly about Old Hill and feel part of a welcoming and supportive community.”
- “They build positive relationships with staff and one another.”
- “This helps them feel included in daily school life.”
To improve
- “However, in some other wider curriculum subjects, higher-attaining pupils do not develop their knowledge as deeply as they could.”
- “A small number of pupils have particularly low attendance.”
- “As a result, the school's overall attendance figures are lower than they would otherwise be.”
