Strengths
- “This is a school that places the ‘Whitnash family’ at the heart of what they do.”
- “Enabling pupils to thrive is a priority for the school.”
- “The school achieves this because of the wider opportunities they provide pupils and the chosen curriculum in place.”
To improve
- “Some subjects are more developed than others due to the school taking time to implement changes in a considered way.”
- “However, there is some variability in how consistently staff plan learning tasks that reflect and address pupils’ misconceptions.”
- “Consequently some groups of pupils, including those most disadvantaged, do not achieve as well as they could.”
