Strengths

“Abbot Beyne is a welcoming, nurturing and caring school.”
“Leaders have created a climate where learning is a priority, summed up by the shared motto, ‘Everyone a Learner.”
“The school’s values to ‘be respectful, be responsible and be resilient’ support this.”

To improve

“However, in some subjects, such as mathematics, teachers move on too quickly and do not check pupils’ understanding.”
“As a result, teachers are less able to determine gaps in pupils’ learning and address forgotten or missed knowledge.”
“For example, they recognise that the attendance of particular groups of pupils needs to improve.”
