Strengths

- “They show kindness towards each other and treat those around them respectfully.”
To improve
- “The school has not finished their work in the early years.”

- “As a result, teachers do not always know exactly what children must learn, so sometimes do not emphasise key knowledge that is needed for key stage 1.”
