Strengths
- “Pupils enjoy being a part of this nurturing school where everyone is valued.”
- “Pupils meet the high expectations that the school sets for their achievement.”
- “They are confident and proud to talk about their learning.”
To improve
- “However, in a small number of subjects in key stages 1 and 2, the school continues to refine the key knowledge that pupils must learn.”
- “This means that, in these remaining subjects, teachers are sometimes unclear about what pupils need to know to ensure that they have secure foundations on which to build new learning.”
- “In those subjects that are less well designed, these checks are at an earlier stage of development.”
