Strengths

“Clifton-upon-Dunsmore CofE Primary School is a welcoming and inclusive school, which pupils are proud to attend.”
“They look out for each other and are respectful of differences between them and others.”
“They enjoy warm and nurturing relationships with staff in school.”

To improve

“However, the school does not have sufficient oversight of the impact of some aspects of its work.”
“This means that pupils, particularly in the early years, do not achieve as well as they could.”
“While the early years curriculum is carefully constructed to build children’s knowledge and appeal to their interests, not all staff are skilled in ensuring that children get the very best from every activity.”
