Strengths
- “Pupils are proud ambassadors for the school.”
- “They make a strong contribution to the calm and respectful atmosphere that exists at the school.”
- “Pupils form trusting relationships with staff, who care for them extremely well.”
To improve
- “However, at times, teaching does not address the gaps or misconceptions that pupils have in their learning.”
- “When this happens, some pupils move on to new learning before they are ready.”
- “In addition, some of the activities that pupils complete do not help them to learn the curriculum in sufficient depth.”
