Strengths
- “This a school proud to be at the heart of its community.”
- “Because of its size, everyone knows and cares for everyone else.”
- “There is a shared commitment to helping everyone feel valued, even if they only join the school for a short time.”
To improve
- “However, sometimes the learning is not adapted to reflect the different starting points of pupils.”
- “There are occasions when pupils are given tasks they are not yet ready for, or tasks that do not provide them with enough opportunity to deepen their learning.”
- “Sometimes, this is because teachers have not checked closely enough how much pupils already know.”
