Strengths
- “Millbrook is a positive and nurturing school.”
- “They enjoy working with their friends in class and at social times on the playground.”
- “They enjoy learning new things.”
To improve
- “However, in a small number of subjects, this is not yet the case.”
- “These subjects are planned, but do not yet make clear the precise content that pupils should know and remember at each stage.”
- “However, the early years curriculum does not set out precisely enough the things that children should know and be able to do at each point of their time in the Reception Year.”
