Strengths
- “The ‘Moss Side way’ values lie at the heart of this inclusive, happy school.”
- “Pupils strive to live up to these values at school and in the community.”
- “They behave well, show respect to others and make a positive contribution to the school and beyond.”
To improve
- “However, in some subjects other than English and mathematics, these systems are still being developed.”
- “This makes it challenging for the school to consistently and accurately identify gaps in pupils’ learning.”
- “As a result, pupils’ knowledge in these subjects does not build as securely as it could.”
