Strengths

“The school is welcoming, inclusive and nurturing.”
“The school prioritises pupils’ well-being and cares deeply for pupils.”
“As a result, pupils feel happy and safe.”

To improve

“However, in a minority of subjects, the school’s checks on pupils’ learning do not routinely identify if pupils have gained the knowledge the school expects them to.”
“As a result, some pupils, including pupils with SEND, have gaps in their learning.”
“However, sometimes the school does not know the impact of its actions to improve pupils’ behaviour and attendance.”
