School remains Good Inspected 5 October 2022
Strengths
- “This is a small school with big ambitions for its pupils.”
- “There is an atmosphere of calm.”
- “The school’s values are clearly lived by all those in the school community.”
To improve
- “In other subjects, the key knowledge and vocabulary leaders wish pupils to learn are not as clear.”
- “However, in some mathematics lessons and other subjects, these careful checks of understanding do not happen often enough or with precision.”
- “This means that some pupils, particularly lower attainers or those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), are not always as well supported as they could be to keep up with the learning.”
