Strengths
- “The school is improving rapidly.”
- “Pupils are benefiting from greater structure and ambition in their learning.”
- “Expectations of what pupils can achieve are rising.”
To improve
- “However, there is more to do before the curriculum supports every pupil to maximise their potential.”
- “Although staff check how pupils’ reading and writing skills are developing, they do not use what they learn to help pupils to build on their learning effectively.”
- “This reduces what pupils can achieve over time.”
Safeguarding: Effective
