Strengths
- “Pupils are happy at this school.”
- “From the start of Reception, pupils learn how to be kind and care for each other.”
- “They understand the importance of valuing each other’s differences.”
To improve
- “On occasion, in some subjects, staff unknowingly teach misconceptions because they are not as secure with their subject knowledge.”
- “This results in pupils having a less well-developed understanding of certain areas of the curriculum.”
- “At times, however, some pupils, and children in Reception, lose concentration without staff noticing.”
