Strengths

“This is an inclusive nurturing school, where pupils are safe, happy and thrive.”
“Pupils across the school are curious and enthusiastic learners.”
“They love learning here, supported by dedicated staff and a strong community.”

To improve

“In a few areas of the curriculum, teachers have not sufficiently ensured that pupils are building on their learning in a way that helps them remember the intended curriculum.”
“For instance, while pupils have some understanding of different faiths and cultures, some do not retain enough information to discuss them confidently.”
“Furthermore, although the curriculum offers many opportunities for pupils to consolidate their learning through writing tasks, the application of writing skills varies across year groups.”

Safeguarding: Effective
