Strengths
- “This is a very caring and nurturing school.”
- “It is a large school, yet staff make the time to get to know pupils and their families at an individual level.”
- “Pupils benefit greatly from their range of needs and circumstances being spotted early.”
To improve
- “However, there are still too few pupils who reach the higher standard in national assessments.”
- “However, there are instances where some pupils with SEND are completing work that is not as precisely matched to their needs as it could be.”
- “There are also some occasions when the expectations for what they can achieve could be more ambitious.”
