Strengths
- “Knebworth Primary and Nursery School is a home from home.”
- “Everyone is included at this school.”
- “Pupils enjoy learning and the opportunities they have in school, visiting museums and historical sites.”
To improve
- “In a few subjects, some teachers do not always have the expertise to develop the skills and knowledge that pupils need.”
- “In such instances, some teachers choose learning activities that do not help pupils to strengthen their understanding.”
- “This means that pupils’ learning is less secure, and they do not make as much progress as they could.”
