Strengths

- “Pupils feel like ‘part of the family’ and enjoy coming to school where they feel safe, happy and valued.”
- “Pupils show this through the way they care for and support one another.”
To improve
- “However, some pupils do not achieve as well as they should across the curriculum because lesson activities in some subjects do not always address gaps in prior knowledge quickly enough.”
- “These gaps slow progress and are reflected in the school’s published outcomes.”
- “Leaders continue their work to reduce the persistent absence further.”
