Strengths
- “Hawkedale Primary School is a small, caring and community-focused school.”
- “Their ‘FIRST’ values of fairness, inclusivity, respect, success and teamwork capture the school ethos of putting pupils first.”
- “Pupils show high levels of respect in lessons.”
To improve
- “However, the quality of teaching is inconsistent, and some pupils do not achieve as well as they could.”
- “Recent curriculum improvements have strengthened pupils’ writing, yet gaps remain in their basic skills such as handwriting, meaning some pupils are not as well prepared for the next stage of education as they should be.”
- “They also recognise the need to refine how they target support so that these pupils benefit even more consistently from the wider offer.”
