Strengths
- “Pupils are proud to attend this school.”
- “They value the strong relationships that they have with their teachers.”
- “Pupils, including those who attend the specially resourced provision for pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) (specially resourced provision), are well supported.”
To improve
- “Nonetheless, from time to time, in a small number of subjects, some teachers’ choice of learning activities does not enable pupils to grasp the subject content securely and meaningfully.”
- “This prevents a small number of pupils from achieving as well as they should.”
- “However, at times, some teachers do not adapt the teaching activities well enough to meet the needs of these pupils.”
