Good Inspected 24 October 2023
Strengths
- “Pupils flourish at this welcoming and aspirational school where everyone wants the best for them.”
- “Pupils’ positive educational experience is reflected in their high rates of attendance and their eager smiles.”
- “They forge strong relationships with the staff and with each other.”
To improve
- “However, in a small number of subjects where curriculums are less well established, teachers’ subject knowledge is not as secure.”
- “This means that, in these areas, pupils’ achievement is not as strong as it could be.”
- “Although they provide valuable support to the school, some governors lack sufficient awareness of some aspects of the school’s curriculum.”
