Strengths
- “Staff at Pendragon Community Primary School care about their pupils and want them to succeed.”
- “The school supports pupils’ mental well-being.”
- “They talk positively about their learning.”
To improve
- “However, some parents of pupils with SEND would like more updates on their child’s progress.”
- “However, in a few foundation subjects, teachers do not have sufficiently deep subject knowledge in order to fully maximise pupils’ learning and outcomes, such as when comparing different localities in geography.”
- “While there is effective provision for pupils with SEND, some parents feel leaders do not communicate to them well enough about what progress their children are making.”
