Strengths
- “Pupils have opportunities to come together through collaboration days and by attending the breakfast or after-school clubs, which operate at Thornton Watlass.”
- “Pupils enjoy coming to school and interacting with their friends.”
- “Relationships between pupils and staff are strong.”
To improve
- “There is a small number of instances where pupils’ behaviour does not meet leaders’ high expectations.”
- “However, teachers do not consistently make it explicit to pupils when they are building on something that they have been taught before.”
- “This means that pupils do not make the important links between their learning.”
