Strengths
- “Pupils’ happy faces show how much they like their small, friendly school.”
- “Their parents and carers had many positive things to say about the support that their children receive.”
- “Two-year-old children are confident to say goodbye to their parents each day because they feel safe and secure.”
To improve
- “In a few subjects, work to develop such an insight is at an earlier stage.”
- “This limits the extent to which the school can refine and improve the curriculum further in these subjects.”
- “Despite the strong reading curriculum, fewer pupils than usual met the expected standard in the national phonics screening check in Year 1 in 2023.”
