Strengths
- “The school is ambitious for pupils to achieve well.”
- “This includes those pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).”
- “Staff in the early years help children get off to a positive start with their education.”
To improve
- “However, there remain a small number of subjects where the learning activities that pupils experience do not build up their understanding of the curriculum content.”
- “As a result, some pupils’ knowledge is insecure and they have misconceptions.”
- “In previous years, some pupils have been absent from school too often.”
