Strengths
- “Pupils, including children in the early years, benefit from a stronger education than they did at the time of the previous inspection.”
- “They achieve well due to an improved curriculum and the school’s high expectations for their academic success.”
- “Pupils live up to the renewed school values.”
To improve
- “However, at times, teachers do not adjust their delivery of the curriculum well enough to help pupils with SEND learn all that they should.”
- “However, pupils in key stage 1 do not have access to the same wealth of experiences outside of school that they enjoyed when they were in the early years.”
- “At times, this limits their knowledge of the wider world.”
