Strengths
- “This school is a friendly and happy community where difference is celebrated.”
- “If pupils join the school mid-year, they are welcomed and helped to make friends quickly.”
- “Pupils enjoy the buddy system where older children partner with younger children.”
To improve
- “However, in some other subjects, the curriculum needs refining so that it identifies the precise knowledge that pupils need to know and when.”
- “However, there is not yet a consistent approach to assessment across all subjects, which means staff do not always have the information that they need about what pupils can or cannot do.”
