Strengths
- “Pupils thrive at this happy and caring school and are at the heart of all the school does.”
- “The school is aspirational and wants pupils to achieve well.”
- “Pupils gain a love of reading and have a range of key knowledge and skills which prepare them well for their next steps.”
To improve
- “However, the intended learning outcomes for some adult led and independent activities in early years, particularly in the outdoor learning space, are not always clear.”
- “This means children may gain little new knowledge from the activities.”
- “However, in some lessons in the wider curriculum, gaps in pupils’ knowledge are not identified and addressed.”
