Strengths
- “At Hopton Primary School, pupils live by ‘golden principles’ of respect, honesty and effort.”
- “The school's curriculum helps them learn to respect each other.”
- “The focus on respect is supported by involvement in a local community approach that aims to combat anti-social behaviour.”
To improve
- “However, their attainment is significantly below that of their non-disadvantaged counterparts within school.”
- “They also recognise that all pupils who are more able could achieve even better outcomes than they do currently.”
- “However, gaps in pupils' knowledge and skills in writing do not currently close quickly enough.”
