Strengths
- “Pupils are proud of their welcoming school.”
- “They want to come to school because of the warm relationships that they enjoy with each other and staff.”
- “These are mirrored in the way that pupils care for one another.”
To improve
- “However, historical weaknesses in the previous curriculum mean that some older pupils have gaps and misconceptions in their knowledge.”
- “At times, teachers do not identify and address the gaps that pupils may have from their learning in previous years.”
- “This prevents pupils from developing depth in their knowledge.”
