Strengths
- “Leaders have taken advice and support, from a wide range of organisations and bodies, on board.”
- “They have made changes where necessary.”
- “Pupils now achieve well, particularly in reading and mathematics.”
To improve
- “At breaktime behaviour is usually good but, sometimes, incidents are not picked up as quickly as they could be by staff on duty.”
- “A small number of pupils who are at an earlier stage of phonics learning do not learn as effectively because the majority of phonics teaching does not build upon their secure prior learning.”
- “Some suggested ideas and resources do not closely match the new curriculums.”
