Strengths
- “Pupils thrive in this warm and welcoming school.”
- “The two values of ‘love’ and ‘respect’ permeate every aspect of its work.”
- “The relationships that pupils have with each other and with staff are based on these values.”
To improve
- “However, sometimes, the support this small number of pupils receive is not as effective as it could be in identifying the reasons for gaps or what those gaps are.”
- “This means that these pupils do not have their precise learning needs met through subsequent support, and they do not catch up as rapidly as they might.”
- “However, occasionally, pupils can become distracted.”
