Strengths
- “St Stephen’s Infants is a friendly and welcoming school.”
- “Pupils are happy and say that everyone is kind.”
- “They understand how the school’s ‘Elli’ characters help them to feel proud, be curious and undertake challenges.”
To improve
- “However, some older pupils struggle to explain techniques such as sketching or use their previous learning to build their understanding of what a prediction is in science.”
- “This is because some teachers do not make clear what they want pupils to learn or routinely check on what pupils know well enough before moving on to new learning.”
- “This slows the progress that some pupils make.”
