Strengths
- “The well-planned transition arrangements mean children start the Reception Year feeling ready for their school journey.”
- “Pupils benefit from having staff who have high expectations and want the best for them.”
- “The care and attention pupils receive puts them in the right frame of mind to learn the school’s interesting curriculum.”
To improve
- “During the pandemic, leadership challenges affected staff morale and slowed the school’s development.”
- “While this approach provides some helpful tailored support, it overlooks gaps in subject knowledge or teaching methods that staff are unaware of.”
- “Additionally, the school does not always check how well training is being applied in the classroom.”
