Strengths
- “At St Peter’s, there is a strong commitment to getting to know each pupil as an individual.”
- “This helps pupils to feel that they belong.”
- “The school is quick to identify pupils who might find school life more difficult and to adapt their school day to make it easier for them to be successful.”
To improve
- “Sometimes, however, these pupils do not study a full curriculum.”
- “This limits their opportunities for further study.”
- “For example, they may not have the opportunity to study a modern foreign language or as rich a body of literature as their peers.”
