Strengths
- “Pupils develop highly positive attitudes to learning, which stand them in good stead for the next stage.”
- “This is because the school strives to give pupils the opportunities and skills that they need to be confident and active members of the communities in which they live.”
- “When the youngest pupils join in Year 3, they quickly learn to meet the high expectations that the staff have of them in their learning and their conduct.”
To improve
- “Published outcomes do not yet reflect the difference this work is having on how well pupils learn across the curriculum.”
- “However, in some aspects of its monitoring, the school does not analyse information with enough precision.”
- “It does not gain important information about patterns and trends over time, to support the information it already holds at an individual, pupil level, for example information about different pupil groups’ attendance and access to the school’s full enrichment offer.”
