Strengths

- “They share their achievements and their learning with a smile on their faces.”
- “Leaders and staff have high ambitions and expectations for all pupils.”
To improve
- “However, pupils who are new to the school and who have gaps in their phonics knowledge are not quickly supported to catch up.”
- “However, some pupils do not get the precise support they need because plans of support are not clear about pupils’ next steps in learning or how adults should help them.”
