Strengths
- “‘Each working for all’ reflects the welcoming ethos of Willowbrook Primary.”
- “Pupils enjoy attending school and do so regularly.”
- “They work hard in their lessons.”
To improve
- “Sometimes, staff set pupils complex work before they have secured the important building blocks of knowledge they need to access it.”
- “Equally, sometimes, staff set work that is too easy and this does not deepen pupils’ understanding as well as it might.”
