Strengths
- “Pupils relish attending this school.”
- “They are keen to build and use their ‘learning superpowers’.”
- “Pupils treat each other, and adults, with courtesy and kindness.”
To improve
- “The school is aware that in some subjects important knowledge, including key vocabulary, is not always identified precisely enough.”
- “This means that pupils do not always gain the important knowledge they need.”
- “Consequently, pupils sometimes find it hard to make links between different topics.”
