Strengths

“The school is determined that pupils thrive together, and they do.”
“Parents speak positively about the care that pupils receive, including the youngest children in the pre-school.”
“Pupils enjoy the different subjects they study.”

To improve

“In other subjects, however, the curriculum is relatively new.”
“Therefore, pupils have not developed detailed subject knowledge and skills over time.”
“However, teachers sometimes do not have the expertise to best support pupils to deepen their understanding or help them remember information over the long-term.”
