Strengths
- “The school is determined that pupils will be given every opportunity to ‘let their light shine’.”
- “Pupils say they like their teachers and feel safe.”
- “Pupils share that these values, as well as British values and protected characteristics, are respected at their school.”
To improve
- “Some pupils are less fluent when referring to previous learning in some subjects.”
- “The school’s curriculum in some subjects is new and while pupils have learned a great deal during the current academic year, they cannot always recall in the same depth what they have studied in previous years.”
- “The school has not yet ensured that the targets set for pupils with SEND are consistently precise in identifying the small steps that will help these pupils to achieve their potential.”
