Strengths
- “This is a friendly and welcoming school.”
- “There is a strong sense of belonging among pupils and staff, who are proud to be part of the Kimberworth family.”
- “Relationships are warm and respectful.”
To improve
- “Leaders are continuing to develop others, such as history and science In history, leaders have included a vast amount of knowledge in the curriculum, but it is unclear which knowledge is the most important.”
- “As a result, pupils can recite many dates and events but are unclear about their relevance and about important concepts such as invasion and power.”
- “However, occasionally there is a lack of consistency in the teaching of reading.”
