Strengths
- “Pupils thrive at this welcoming school.”
- “Staff give pupils the confidence they need to be themselves.”
- “One pupil summed up the views of many when they stated, ‘This school is simply amazing.’”
To improve
- “In these subjects, the curriculum does not always identify what pupils should learn about the most complex aspects of the subjects they study.”
- “Sometimes, this results in pupils being ready to move their learning on but not consistently being provided with opportunities to do so.”
