Strengths
- “Pupils achieve well and thrive at Moreton Say.”
- “This is because leaders and staff want the best for all pupils.”
- “They know pupils well as individuals.”
To improve
- “This is because some of the activities which teachers plan for pupils in these subjects do not allow pupils to remember what is most important.”
- “Pupils therefore do not learn as well as they could in these subjects.”
- “However, they do not always get to practise the phonics they have learned.”
