School remains Good Inspected 29 March 2023
Strengths
- “The curriculum has been developed to ensure pupils leave the school at the end of Year 6 with the skills, knowledge and vocabulary to be ready for secondary school.”
- “Pupils learn in an environment that supports them to have high aspirations.”
- “They respond positively to teachers’ expectations of behaviour and academic achievement.”
To improve
- “Some pupils are disappointed that extra-curricular activities and clubs that took place prior to the pandemic have not restarted.”
- “This limits pupils’ opportunities to pursue interests outside of the taught curriculum.”
- “However, some staff are not as skilled at delivering these interventions as leaders intend.”
