Good Inspected 23 May 2023

Strengths

“One pupil told an inspector that: ‘There is lots of kindness in our school.”
“This is a happy school where pupils are looked after and nurtured.”
“Relationships between staff and pupils are consistently positive.”

To improve

“However, in a small number of subjects, the curriculum does not make it clear enough the content that pupils are expected to know and remember.”
“As a result, in these subjects, pupils’ recall of the curriculum is inconsistent.”
“However, it does not have the same detail for children who start nursery at the age of two.”
