Strengths
- “Pupils thrive at this friendly and welcoming school.”
- “They are happy to be part of such a warm and caring community.”
- “Older pupils enjoy helping children in early years to settle in quickly and make new friends.”
To improve
- “In a few subjects, the school has not identified the most important content in the curriculum clearly enough.”
- “This means that, from time to time, teachers do not introduce pupils to new learning in a way that supports them to make links with earlier knowledge.”
- “Added to this, some teachers do not use assessment information as well as they could in these curriculums.”
