School remains Good Inspected 2 February 2022
Strengths
- “Pupils thrive in this caring school.”
- “The culture is shaped clearly by the school’s values of pray, learn, love and enjoy.”
- “Leaders, governors, staff and pupils live out these values in daily routines and interactions, creating a warm, purposeful and respectful environment.”
To improve
- “However, attainment in mathematics remains lower than leaders expect.”
- “Leaders also recognise the need to develop pupils’ spelling and handwriting further so that achievement continues to rise.”
- “However, when learning activities do not reflect the ambition of the curriculum, some pupils can lose concentration and become distracted.”
