Strengths
- “Pupils are happy and safe in Upottery School.”
- “They enjoy coming to school and work hard.”
- “Pupils benefit from the opportunities they have to influence the school, for example by being an eco-leader.”
To improve
- “For example, the previous approach to teaching early reading did not ensure that all pupils learned to read well enough.”
- “However, pupils who find writing difficult do not get the support they need.”
- “As a result, these pupils do not secure the knowledge they need to become confident and fluent writers.”
