Strengths
- “Pupils enjoy coming to school and there are high expectations of behaviour.”
- “Children in the early years quickly develop a strong understanding of what is expected of them.”
- “Pupils say they are happy that behaviour has improved, and learning is rarely interrupted.”
To improve
- “Nevertheless, pupils are absent too often, meaning they miss much of their learning.”
- “However, these changes are recent, meaning some pupils have fallen behind.”
- “Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) do not receive the most appropriate support.”
