Strengths
- “The high-quality pastoral care, the school’s deep commitment to pupils’ personal development and the high expectations for achievement mean that pupils do become the ‘tall oaks’ the school intends them to be.”
- “Pupils are happy, confident and safe.”
- “They achieve well, including in national tests.”
To improve
- “The key stage 2 reading curriculum is not designed in sufficient detail.”

- “Although outcomes in reading at the end of key stage 2 are broadly secure, some pupils do not achieve as well as they could.”
