Ofsted
Good Inspected 28 September 2022
Strengths
- “Pupils, and children in the early years, are happy to belong to this vibrant school community.”
- “The warm and positive relationships that pupils build with both the staff and each other help them to feel safe and important.”
- “Pupils are confident that if they reported any concerns, including about bullying, staff would act swiftly to resolve them.”
To improve
- “Occasionally, in a few subjects, teachers are not clear enough about the building blocks of knowledge that pupils, including children in the early years, should learn and when this should be taught.”
- “This makes it difficult for teachers to check how well pupils have secured their knowledge before moving on to new learning.”
- “This hinders how well some pupils learn in these subjects.”
