Strengths
- “Christ Church CofE Primary School is a welcoming and happy school.”
- “Pupils, and children in the early years, are polite and friendly.”
- “They respect differences between people.”
To improve
- “However, in a very small number of subjects, teachers do not check carefully enough that pupils’ knowledge is secure before they move on to new learning.”
- “When this happens, some pupils do not learn as well as they should.”
