Strengths
- “This is a happy and caring school.”
- “Pupils, parents, staff and governors all feel part of the Brimpton family.”
- “The school values of responsibility, love, forgiveness, respect and community are woven into daily school life.”
To improve
- “Sometimes, the tasks that pupils complete are not sharply focused on the most important learning.”
- “This means that on occasion, pupils do not have sufficient time or practise to secure their learning before moving on.”
- “In other subjects, the school’s approach to checking pupils’ understanding is not yet fully developed.”
