Strengths
- “The school motto, ‘Growing together in mind, body and spirit’, underpins all the school does.”
- “It is evident in how pupils learn through the academic, character and enrichment curriculum and how they conduct themselves around the school.”
- “Securing respectful and nurturing relationships is central to this.”
To improve
- “They know that there are some subjects where the curriculum is not as well embedded.”
- “Leaders know that there is still work to do in some subjects in the wider curriculum.”
- “However, as leaders seek to further improve the provision for pupils with SEND, there are some pupils who do not yet have the precise and targeted support they need to overcome their barriers to learning.”
