Strengths
- “Pupils described their school as caring, safe and happy.”
- “From the Reception Year to Year 2, pupils look forward to coming to school because they know that staff will take care of them.”
- “The school’s vision statement, ‘Learning, caring and growing together in faith’, is evident in the nurturing relationships that staff have forged with pupils and their families.”
To improve
- “However, a small number of subject leaders are still developing the expertise that they need to enable them to lead their subjects with confidence.”
- “That said, in a small number of subjects, leaders’ curriculum thinking is less well developed.”
- “As a result, some teachers are not clear enough about the important knowledge that pupils should learn.”
