Strengths
- “Hayward’s Primary School is a highly inclusive school that welcomes everyone.”
- “Pupils enjoy coming to school and are proud to be part of the family that is ‘Hayward’s Community’.”
- “Leaders place disadvantaged pupils and pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) at the forefront of their decision-making.”
To improve
- “However, some pupils who could achieve the higher standards by the end of key stage 2 do not do so.”
