Strengths
- “Staff are patient, caring and reassuring.”
- “They give pupils the support they need, both for their learning and their well-being.”
- “As one parent described the school: ’This is a little school with a huge heart’.”
To improve
- “In a small number of subjects, however, this information is not quite as precise.”
- “This is because, in these subjects, leaders do not have a clear oversight of the full curriculum.”
- “Consequently, when pupils start a new topic in these subjects, it is not always clear that pupils have the prior knowledge they need.”
