Some aspects not as strong Inspected 8 January 2025
Strengths
- “Community is at the heart of this welcoming and inclusive school.”
- “Pupils actively embrace the school’s values, particularly demonstrating courage.”
- “For example, the school encourages pupils to perform in front of others at Wells Cathedral.”
To improve
- “However, there are still areas where further work remains.”
- “Pupils struggle to remember their learning in some subjects because the curriculum does not specify the most important knowledge they need to learn.”
- “Moreover, the school does not check pupils’ learning well enough.”
