Strengths
- “Relationships are positive at this school.”
- “Leaders’ strongly held belief that ‘a happy child is a successful child’ drives the daily interactions between staff and pupils.”
- “One pupil summed up the school when they said: ‘Teachers are lovely to us.”
To improve
- “However, in a small number of subjects the curriculum does not make clear the underpinning knowledge that pupils should secure in order to master the skills.”
- “However, pupils in the Reception Year have not been taught phonics from the very start of the school year.”
- “Too much time has been spent checking on what pupils know and recapping what they have learned previously.”
