Strengths
- “Pupils are happy at this welcoming and inclusive school.”
- “One parent summed up the views of many, saying, ‘My child simply bounces into school each morning.”
- “Pupils talk with confidence and enthusiasm about their school values, ‘The Grange Way’, which helps them to make good choices in all that they do.”
To improve
- “However, in a few subjects, where the key content is not identified as precisely as it needs to be, teachers are not always clear what they should prioritise.”
- “Consequently, this has led to some gaps in pupils’ knowledge, and they do not always learn as much as they could.”
