Strengths
- “Pupils are rightly proud of their kind and friendly school.”
- “Adults make sure that all pupils start each day with a warm welcome.”
- “Staff are keen to hear pupils’ views and take prompt action to resolve any concerns.”
To improve
- “However, in a few subjects, the essential learning is not always set out clearly enough.”
- “This means that teachers are not always confident about how to help pupils build their knowledge towards achieving the challenging curriculum goals that have been set.”
- “The school acknowledges there is more work to be done in other subjects to check pupils’ recall of the most important content and to refine how staff use this information to inform teaching.”
