Strengths
- “Pupils at St George’s enjoy school.”
- “They are keen to learn and relish the positive experiences through the extra opportunities such as the clubs for science, football and dance.”
- “They are very proud of their school and say that it is a friendly place where everyone is welcome.”
To improve
- “However, teachers are not checking this closely enough, and some pupils change their books too quickly.”
- “This means that they do not have enough practice in re-reading their books to secure their phonic knowledge.”
- “Leaders know that pupils need more time to talk about the stories they read to reinforce their understanding and to further develop their language.”
