Strengths
- “Pupils, including children in the early years, enjoy coming to this small village school.”
- “They proudly live up to the school motto, ‘We teach each other, we learn together, we leave prepared.”
- “Pupils of all ages play and work together happily.”
To improve
- “However, in some subjects, the school has not clearly identified the key learning that it wants pupils to learn and remember.”
