Strengths
- “Pupils enjoy coming to school and eagerly anticipate the morning work that awaits them in class.”
- “They say the best thing about their school is that there are ‘no outsiders’ meaning everyone is welcome and treated kindly.”
- “When pupils new to speaking English join the school, they encounter enthusiastic support from the school community.”
To improve
- “However, sometimes, teachers do not use the most effective strategies to engage pupils in learning as well as they could.”
- “Leaders recognise the need to support staff to design tasks and activities that help all pupils, including those with SEND to achieve well in every lesson.”
