Strengths

- “They have positive attitudes towards school and their learning.”
To improve
- “However, some pupils' communication and language skills are not yet as developed as they could be.”
- “As a result, at times, pupils do not produce oral and written sentences of as high a quality as they could.”
- “However, leaders are working to ensure that staff check pupils' understanding consistently well, so that gaps in knowledge are identified quicker and addressed effectively.”
