Strengths
- “This is a nurturing school that puts pupils’ care at the forefront.”
- “Adults know how to support pupils’ special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).”
- “They say that they feel safe, and that they trust staff to care for them and enjoy coming to school.”
To improve
- “However, teachers’ implementation of the curriculum across all subjects and ages is not as consistent as it could be.”
- “This is because the small steps needed to make sure that pupils’ learning always builds on existing learning are not yet precise enough.”
- “This is mainly due to leaders not yet having had time to develop teachers’ detailed knowledge of all subjects.”
