Strengths
- “Westdale Infant School is a welcoming and friendly place to be.”
- “Leaders ensure that Westdale is ‘a happy community where magical things happen’.”
- “Pupils model the school’s ‘rainbow values’.”
To improve
- “In some foundation subjects, leaders have not yet developed the systems for checking what pupils need to know and remember.”
- “In these subjects, leaders do not have a precise enough understanding of where there may be gaps in pupils’ knowledge.”
- “As a result, future learning does not always address any knowledge gaps pupils may still have.”
