Strengths
- “Saxlingham Nethergate is a friendly and welcoming school.”
- “Pupils are guided by the school’s core values – ‘together, we care, we learn, we achieve, and we celebrate’.”
- “Pupils have a strong sense of community.”
To improve
- “Occasionally, pupils who are confident and articulate can dominate lessons by calling out.”
- “Teachers do not always use strategies that allow all pupils to engage well.”
- “This means that less confident pupils can be reticent to take part in lessons.”
