Strengths
- “Pupils are proud to belong to this welcoming and inclusive school community.”
- “They enjoy coming to school, attend regularly and speak positively about their experiences.”
- “Relationships between pupils, staff and families are positive and contribute to the school's family and community ethos.”
To improve
- “However, the work they produce does not consistently reflect the same depth of understanding or level of precision seen in English and mathematics.”
- “In some subjects, pupils do not routinely demonstrate or extend their learning through tasks that deepen their thinking.”
- “As a result, the quality of work in these subjects is not as high as it could be.”
