Strengths
- “This is a welcoming school, where pupils are happy and feel safe.”
- “Behaviour is generally calm and respectful.”
- “Most pupils behave well, supported by the school’s systems and expectations.”
To improve
- “While some pupils are encouraged to take pride in their work, the school’s expectations for high-quality work are not always applied across subjects and year groups.”
- “This means that some pupils do not yet have regular opportunities to produce their best work.”
- “However, the quality of education remains inconsistent.”
