Strengths
- “Hillview is a warm and welcoming school.”
- “Pupils’ well-being is at the heart of the school’s ethos.”
- “Pupils have adults in school who they can talk to if they have any worries or concerns.”
To improve
- “However, in a few subjects, leaders are in the process of refining their curriculum thinking.”
- “In these subjects, the key knowledge and the order in which it should be implemented is less clearly defined.”
- “That said, there are very limited opportunities for pupils to take on positions of leadership and responsibility in school.”
