Strengths
- “Pupils feel happy and safe at Redlands Primary School.”
- “The school’s values of kindness, respect, determination, responsibility, integrity and equality are extensively promoted.”
- “Pupils are expected to live out these values and are supported to do so.”
To improve
- “What pupils remember over time is not checked as carefully, or revisited systematically, in the wider curriculum.”
- “This means that pupils do not always deepen their understanding as well as they could.”
