Strengths
- “Pupils know the school’s values of ‘Be ready, be safe, be kind' and talk confidently about how these are celebrated through rewards and weekly celebration assemblies.”
- “However, pupils develop a sense of belonging quickly and are nurtured thoughtfully.”
- “Celebration events such as Armed Forces Day and visiting speakers are used to help pupils forge close links to the community successfully.”
To improve
- “By the end of key stage 2, pupils achieve consistently high standards in reading and mathematics but less strongly in writing.”
- “Some staff do not yet implement some of these developments as effectively as they could.”
- “In some subject areas in the wider curriculum, a small proportion of pupils do not learn as securely as they could.”
