Strengths
- “Leaders have established an influential vision that inspires pupils to treat each other with the utmost respect.”
- “Staff consistently show pupils how to be kind and how to support each other.”
- “Pupils follow the example that adults set for them by applying for the many leadership roles on offer.”
To improve
- “Some pupils find it more difficult to manage their feelings and behaviour.”
- “However, the support given to pupils who struggle the most is not as precise as it could be.”
- “When these pupils read their reading books to an adult, adults do not consistently encourage pupils to draw on their phonic knowledge to help them to read.”
