Strengths
- “Pupils are polite and considerate.”
- “They learn to be friendly and responsible through the school’s values of ‘kindness, perseverance and trust’.”
- “Pupils demonstrate these qualities through their positive attitudes and their relationships with other pupils and staff.”
To improve
- “However, there are instances when teachers do not identify those pupils whose knowledge is not secure and who are, therefore, unable to complete tasks successfully.”
- “This means that some pupils do not learn some of the curriculum as well as they could.”
