Strengths
- “This is a school where pupils like learning and teachers enjoy teaching.”
- “Every pupil receives a warm welcome at this happy, friendly school.”
- “Pupils get on well together and any disagreements are quickly sorted out.”
To improve
- “However, some pupils with the most complex special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) at the school are currently not progressing well enough.”
- “This is because the curriculum and support for these pupils is not shaped carefully enough around their needs.”
- “Nevertheless, in a few subjects, such as geography, there is sometimes too much content for staff to teach meaningfully.”
