Strengths
- “Pupils develop a consistently strong understanding of fundamental British values and the important role that they are expected to play within these.”
- “The school is happy and cohesive.”
- “Relationships between staff and pupils are positive.”
To improve
- “In some places, these resources do not work together as well as they should.”
- “For example, the books that some pupils read do not align as closely as they should to the sounds that they have learned in lessons.”
- “This means that pupils do not master phonics as quickly or as well as they could.”
