School remains Good Inspected 18 May 2023
Strengths
- “This is a welcoming and inclusive school.”
- “The school’s values, including ‘respect, resilience, responsibility and reflection’, underpin the positive ethos in the school.”
- “Leaders have high expectations for achievement and for the conduct of all pupils.”
To improve
- “In a few subjects, leaders’ curriculum planning does not identify precisely enough the sequence of knowledge that pupils need to learn.”
- “Where this occurs, teachers do not always provide work that enables pupils to build on what they already know and remember their learning securely.”
- “However, despite training, some staff lack the technical expertise required to help these pupils catch up quickly.”
