Strengths
- “The school holds high ambition for pupils to achieve well.”
- “This includes those pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).”
- “Pupils work hard in lessons and make the most of the opportunities that the school provides for them.”
To improve
- “There remain a small number of other subjects where some learning activities do not build pupils’ understanding of the key knowledge set out in the curriculum.”
- “As a result, in these subjects, pupils’ knowledge is insecure, and they do not learn as well as they could.”
