Strengths
- “Most pupils try their best during lessons, even when they find learning difficult.”
- “Many pupils behave as they should in classrooms and around the school.”
- “At times, leaders deal with incidents of bullying in a suitable way.”
To improve
- “Although children in the early years make a positive start to their primary education, older pupils are not adequately prepared for their next steps.”
- “This is because the curriculum, and the way in which it is taught, does not enable pupils to build their reading, writing and mathematics knowledge sufficiently well as they progress through the school.”
- “Disadvantaged pupils and pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities do not receive the support that they need to succeed.”
