Strengths
- “Pupils are proud to be part of this warm, friendly and inclusive school.”
- “They are polite and considerate to their teachers and each other.”
- “There is a strong culture of mutual trust and respect.”
To improve
- “However, a minority of subjects are not as well developed because leaders have not identified the precise knowledge, skills and vocabulary that pupils need to learn.”
- “Staff are not clear on exactly what pupils need to know and remember.”
- “This leads to pupils not building up their knowledge sufficiently well in a small number of subjects.”
