Strengths
- “Pupils enjoy learning and playing at this caring school.”
- “They learn to treat everyone equally.”
- “Pupils make the most of everything that the school offers.”
To improve
- “However, in a small number of subjects, teachers do not give pupils sufficient opportunity to learn essential knowledge.”

- “Occasionally, lessons are disturbed by some pupils who find it difficult to concentrate.”
