School remains Good Inspected 1 February 2024
Strengths
- “Pupils arrive at school each morning looking forward to the day ahead.”
- “The cheerful greetings that they receive from caring staff at the start of each school day helps them to feel happy and ready to learn.”
- “The school motto permeates everything that pupils and staff do.”
To improve
- “In a few subjects, the school has not clearly identified the most important subject-specific concepts that pupils should revisit over time.”
- “In these subjects, staff do not routinely check that pupils can recall and connect newer learning with knowledge and concepts taught in previous year groups or key stages.”
- “This means that some pupils struggle to remember some key information in the longer term.”
