Strengths
- “Pupils enjoy attending this welcoming school.”
- “They share their knowledge with enthusiasm, demonstrating their inquiring minds.”
- “Pupils are eager to learn because staff make tasks engaging and fun.”
To improve
- “However, across the school, in a few subjects, the teaching of language related to some topics is not as focused as it could be.”
- “Teachers are sometimes unclear about the vocabulary that pupils need to learn.”
- “This means that when some pupils discuss a new idea, they cannot participate in meaningful discussions that help them learn and remember new concepts.”
