Strengths
- “Pupils, including children in the early years, care about each other in this supportive school.”
- “Older pupils act as welcoming buddies to younger pupils.”
- “This helps pupils to make friends easily and learn routines quickly.”
To improve
- “However, in some subjects, the strategies used for checking pupils’ understanding are at an earlier stage of development.”
- “However, at times, pupils do not read books that are closely matched their phonics knowledge.”
- “This knocks pupils’ confidence and hinders their progress in reading.”
