Strengths
- “Pupils are proud to be part of the school’s family.”
- “They show respect for each other and for the adults who look after them.”
- “Trusting relationships support pupils to feel safe and happy.”
To improve
- “However, teachers’ confidence in delivering a few subjects, for example art and design and technology, is still developing.”
- “However, these checks have not always identified when pupils do not understand and remember the content they need to master.”
- “This inconsistency led to pupils’ achievement in end-of-key-stage tests being lower than expected in 2023.”
