Strengths
- “Pupils are happy to be part of this warm and caring school.”
- “They feel welcome as soon as they join.”
- “Pupils value the close bonds that they form with their classmates and with staff in the school’s small community.”
To improve
- “Staff check that pupils learn the intended curriculum, although some of the strategies that they use are not fully embedded.”
- “This means that some pupils have misunderstandings and some gaps in knowledge that have gone unchecked.”
- “However, the school has not focused as sharply as it could on developing staff’s knowledge in supporting pupils’ accuracy in their reading and writing.”
