Strengths
- “Pupils relish belonging to this close-knit community.”
- “They arrive at school happily every day, ready to work hard and to achieve well.”
- “Pupils are confident and articulate.”
To improve
- “However, while pupils know how to use accurately punctuated sentences to communicate their ideas in writing, some pupils' handwriting and spelling need to improve.”
- “This is because some pupils do not form letters correctly or spell words accurately when they write.”
- “However, sometimes, activities are not precise enough to enable pupils to practise and reinforce new knowledge and skills.”
