Good Inspected 3 October 2023

Strengths

“They are proud of their school and its inclusivity.”
“Strong relationships mean pupils feel confident to share any worries.”
“Pupils know the school’s values well and demonstrate these in their interactions.”

To improve

“However, a small number of subjects are at an earlier stage of development.”
“In these subjects, the school has not sequenced the important knowledge it wants pupils to learn in a logical order.”
“Because of this, some pupils struggle to remember their learning and make links with what they have learned before.”
