Strengths
- “Pupils are kind, polite and happy.”
- “They thrive in the nurturing environment that leaders have established at the school.”
- “This includes the Reception class, where most children are well prepared for the demands of Year 1.”
To improve
- “In a small number of subjects, on occasion, some teachers do not design learning that helps pupils to develop the depth of knowledge that they should.”
- “As a result, some pupils are not sufficiently well prepared for the next stage of their learning.”
- “On occasion, some of the activities that staff design do not help some pupils to routinely build their phonic knowledge.”
