Strengths
- “Pupils thrive at Twyning School.”
- “Children get off to a strong start in the early years and the school takes great care to ensure that pupils are nurtured and academically challenged as they move through the key stages.”
- “Pupils achieve very well in most areas and they are prepared well for secondary school.”
To improve
- “Pupils enjoy their learning in the wider curriculum, but some curriculum activities do not always ensure pupils are learning effectively.”
- “In addition, the expectations of pupils’ writing in these subjects are not as high as they are in English.”
- “As a result, their retention of knowledge is less secure and the quality of their work is not as strong as it is in the core subjects.”
