Strengths
- “Becket Primary School is a school where pupils are well cared for.”
- “Strong relationships between staff and pupils help pupils to feel happy and become confident learners.”
- “The values in this school, ‘be kind, be respectful, be honest and work hard’, thread through everything that staff and pupils do.”
To improve
- “However, in a few subjects, this is not as precise as it could be.”
- “As a result, teachers sometimes plan learning activities that do not focus well enough on the key knowledge that pupils need to learn and remember.”
- “However, teachers do not always help pupils to understand what they have done well or how they could improve their work.”
