Strengths
- “Pupils enjoy attending this inclusive and welcoming school.”
- “Staff build warm, positive relationships with pupils and their families.”
- “They work in close partnership to reduce the barriers that pupils, including those who are disadvantaged or have special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), may face.”
To improve
- “However, too many pupils do not secure the basic knowledge and skills they need.”
- “This is because of historic weaknesses in the curriculum and variability in the way staff implement the curriculum.”
- “In addition, leaders’ and governors’ actions do not bring about improvement swiftly enough.”
