Strengths
- “Pupils achieve well, as the school continues to raise expectations of what pupils should know and understand.”
- “Pupils take pride in their learning.”
- “They enjoy taking on responsibilities within the school, such as being a house captain.”
To improve
- “In a few subjects, the tasks that pupils complete do not always enable them to connect new learning with what they already know.”
- “Where this is the case, pupils do not achieve as well as they could.”
- “However, there are instances when teachers are not as thorough in checking on pupils’ understanding within lessons.”
