Strengths
- “Pupils are happy at Mayflower Primary School.”
- “Many pupils describe their school as ‘safe, kind and amazing’.”
- “Despite the significant disruption since the previous inspection, due to the discovery of reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete (RAAC), the school has created a nurturing, inclusive and welcoming environment for pupils in their temporary building.”
To improve
- “However, school’s recent work on the wider curriculum has not been fully realised.”
- “As a result, the wider curriculum does not support pupils to build on their knowledge well enough.”
- “They do not receive a broad curriculum offer.”
