Strengths
- “Pupils are proud to be at this school.”
- “Many pupils take on volunteering roles as buddies and ambassadors.”
- “This is because they want to give something back to the school by helping other pupils.”
To improve

- “As a result, opportunities to teach pupils important knowledge and skills are sometimes missed.”
- “Consequently, pupils do not learn as much as they could.”
