Strengths
- “This is a happy and friendly school, where everyone values and celebrates the differences between people.”
- “Pupils live up to the school’s motto.”
- “Their actions show that they are ready, responsible and respectful.”
To improve

- “In addition, the order in which subject knowledge will be taught has not been identified.”
- “This makes it difficult for pupils to build on what they already know.”
