Strengths
- “Pupils enjoy coming to this happy, friendly school.”
- “They like the fun and interesting learning activities that their teachers plan for them.”
- “They understand that bullying is wrong and say it is very rare.”
To improve
- “The use of assessment is not as fully developed in all subjects as it is in mathematics and English.”

- “Leaders are aware that pupils need more opportunities to interact with pupils in local schools and to broaden their cultural understanding.”
