Strengths
- “This school’s ambition for all pupils to ‘Let Your Light Shine’ resonates through every interaction and activity.”
- “Each day, pupils are welcomed warmly by staff.”
- “All staff know every pupil exceptionally well.”
To improve
- “However, in some lessons, these tasks do not challenge pupils to think as deeply as they could.”
- “At times, pupils are moved on to new work because most pupils have finished.”
- “This means that pupils who need more practice do not always have the opportunity to embed what they are learning, and those who finish their work are not challenged to think and achieve as highly as they could be.”
