Strengths
- “Pupils enjoy attending this friendly, welcoming school.”
- “They are polite and respectful to one another.”
- “Pupils are enthusiastic about their learning.”
To improve
- “However, they have not yet made clear how the learning that children receive in the early years is successfully built upon in Year 1.”
- “This leads to children being less well prepared for their learning as they enter key stage 1.”
- “However, their understanding of communities with different faiths and cultures is limited.”
