Strengths
- “Even so, staff know all pupils well and greet them by name.”
- “A pupil echoed the views of many by saying, ‘It’s a big school, but I can still be a unique child.”
- “Leaders aim high for pupils’ personal development and academic success.”
To improve
- “However, leaders are keeping history and some other subjects under development.”
- “While pupils learn well within ‘topics’, the key steps of learning are not sequenced clearly enough.”
- “Therefore, teachers cannot identify the most important knowledge that pupils need in order for them to learn more.”
