Strengths
- “Positive relationships and an ambition to succeed are at the heart of this happy, village school.”
- “Pupils feel safe and well cared for.”
- “The school’s values of collaboration, resilience, responsibility, respect and compassion permeate the curriculum and behaviour expectations.”
To improve
- “However, there are a small number of pupils who require more opportunities to deepen their learning and move on to more complex work.”
- “However, the way that staff check whether pupils understand their learning is not yet embedded.”
- “This means that some pupils have misconceptions that are not identified during lessons.”
