Strengths
- “Pupils, and students in the sixth form, appreciate the close-knit nature of the school community.”
- “This helps them to get to know each other.”
- “Leaders and staff want all pupils and students to do their best.”
To improve
- “However, occasionally, in a few subjects, some teachers do not use assessment strategies sufficiently well to identify errors and misconceptions in pupils’ learning.”
- “This means that sometimes, pupils’ learning does not build as securely as it could do on what they already know.”
- “A small number of pupils said that there are instances of poor behaviour in lessons.”
