Strengths
- “Pupils flourish at Chaigeley School.”
- “This is because staff have detailed knowledge of each pupil and have developed strong, caring relationships with them.”
- “At Chaigeley, they feel valued and listened to.”
To improve
- “However, in a small number of subjects, the school has not considered precisely enough what pupils should learn and by when.”
- “This prevents teachers from accurately identifying and building on what pupils should know and remember.”
- “This hinders pupils from learning all that they could.”
Safeguarding: Effective
