Strengths
- “Pupils feel at ease in this safe and nurturing environment.”
- “They show empathy towards each other.”
- “They are considerate and care genuinely for their peers, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).”
To improve
- “However, on a few occasions, the lessons are not effectively adapted to enable pupils to access or understand what they need to learn.”
- “Opportunities to strengthen pupils’ understanding of subject-specific vocabulary are not always maximised.”
- “This leads to some pupils not deepening their knowledge and understanding as well as they might.”
