Strengths
- “Everyone is made to feel welcome at this school.”
- “Pupils develop nurturing and trusting relationships with staff, who help them to understand their own emotions and behaviour.”
- “This helps pupils to feel comfortable, happy and safe in the school community.”
To improve
- “However, in a few subjects, curriculum thinking lacks precision.”
- “In these subjects, the school is still determining the specific knowledge and vocabulary that pupils should learn.”
- “Consequently, pupils do not build securely on their earlier learning.”
