Strengths
- “Pupils are well behaved in lessons and at playtimes.”
- “Bullying seldom happens and pupils feel safe in school.”
- “Pupils know they can talk to the adults about any concerns.”
To improve
- “However, the early years curriculum is not sufficiently detailed to prepare pupils for Year 1.”
- “In some cases, these plans do not fully reflect the pupil’s primary need.”
- “Therefore, some interventions do not bring about rapid learning and catch up.”
