Strengths
- “Stow Heath Primary School is an inclusive school where all pupils are genuinely welcome.”
- “Pupils enjoy attending school.”
- “Leaders have high expectations of pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).”
To improve
- “However, because many of the strategies are new and not fully embedded, inconsistencies have occurred between year groups.”
- “As a result, the rate of pupils’ achievement is slower in some classes.”
- “However, the content that teachers emphasise and assess does not always focus enough on important recurring themes or features of the past.”
