Strengths
- “Pupils are enthusiastic and keen learners.”
- “They motivate and support each other to achieve well.”
- “Pupils recognise the importance of contributing to the school community.”
To improve
- “However, there are a small number of subjects where the school has not decided the order in which some knowledge will be taught.”
- “This makes it difficult for staff to design learning that builds on what pupils already know.”
- “As a result, some pupils do not learn as well as they could in these subjects.”
