Strengths
- “Pupils are happy and proud to attend this small, welcoming school.”
- “They are well looked after by caring staff who know them and their families well.”
- “Pupils are well mannered and polite; they are eager to talk about what they like about their school.”
To improve
- “That said, in the early years foundation stage, leaders have not broken down in enough detail the precise knowledge that they want children to know and remember.”
- “Consequently, teachers are uncertain about how children should best make progress within this phase.”
- “Leaders are honest that assessment in some foundation subjects is less developed than in others.”
