Strengths
- “This is a school where every child is welcomed and celebrated.”
- “Pupils here are friendly and caring.”
- “They have warm relationships with adults in the school.”
To improve
- “However, in some subjects, staff do not ensure that pupils revise and recall their previous knowledge securely enough.”
- “This means that sometimes pupils do not have the secure foundations on which to build their new learning.”
- “However, some of these broader opportunities are not well honed and do not widen pupils’ horizons consistently and effectively enough.”
