Good Inspected 30 March 2023
Strengths
- “Pupils trust staff and know that they will listen if they have concerns.”
- “Parents describe the school as ‘wonderful, nurturing, amazing and supportive’.”
- “Pupils feel safe and are kept safe.”
To improve
- “In a minority of subjects, the curriculum is at an earlier stage of development.”
- “In these subjects, leaders have identified the skills but not the precise knowledge and subject-specific vocabulary that leaders want pupils to know and remember from early years through to Year 6.”
- “Teachers are not checking well enough what pupils already know so that they can adapt learning accordingly to ensure that gaps in learning are addressed and pupils develop a deep knowledge in each subject.”
