Strengths
- “Nafferton Primary School is a place where childhood is nurtured and celebrated.”
- “Pupils are proud to be part of the ‘family’.”
- “Many parents say that this school is ‘amazing’ and ‘unique’.”
To improve
- “Other areas of the curriculum are not as well developed.”
- “In a small number of subjects, curriculum plans do not include the detailed knowledge that leaders intend for pupils to know and learning is not revisited frequently enough.”
- “This means that many pupils cannot recall learning in these subjects as it doesn’t build over time.”
