Strengths
- “The school motto of ‘bring the world to the child and take the child into the world’ shines through in all that the school does.”
- “From the moment children join, staff prioritise getting to know them and their families well.”
- “Children benefit from warm and nurturing relationships.”
To improve
- “The school is still developing staff’s expertise in a few areas of learning.”
- “This means that some adults lack the confidence to teach these areas of the curriculum as well as the others.”
- “Therefore, children do not build their knowledge as securely as they do in the more established areas of learning.”
