Strengths
- “Pupils enjoy learning at Shield Road Primary School.”
- “Staff create an environment where pupils feel listened to and valued.”
- “The school welcomes pupils from other countries, who quickly become part of the school community.”
To improve
- “As a result, the checks staff make on what pupils know and remember do not precisely identify if pupils securely grasp the skills, vocabulary and knowledge leaders intend.”
- “This limits what some pupils learn and how well they learn it.”
