Strengths
- “Pupils are happy to come to this inclusive and nurturing school.”
- “They learn the values of trust, determination, uniqueness, friendship, kindness and respect which are woven throughout every aspect of their school day.”
- “Pupils treat each other kindly, for example sharing equipment in the playground and laptops in lessons.”
To improve
- “They are also in the process of enhancing the early years curriculum.”
- “However, in some lessons, staff do not check carefully enough how well pupils have understood the intended curriculum.”
- “This means that while pupils learn well overall, they could achieve even more highly.”
