School remains Good Inspected 31 January 2024
Strengths
- “Pupils are exceptionally proud to be part of this school community.”
- “Their strong understanding of the school ethos of being ‘ready, respectful and responsible’ is demonstrated through their interactions across the school day.”
- “The expectations the school has of pupils’ behaviour are high, and pupils regularly meet these.”
To improve
- “However, the needs of these pupils are not always fully considered in lessons, and adaptions are not always as precise.”
- “As such, a small number of pupils with SEND are not achieving as highly as they could be.”
- “While staff know what the needs of these pupils are, they do not always adapt work for them appropriately.”
