Strengths
- “Pupils’ behaviour and attitudes to learning are exceptional.”
- “Strong relationships and the school’s approach to managing behaviour helps pupils to feel responsible for themselves and each other.”
- “Clear boundaries and effective communication from staff help pupils to know what is expected of them throughout the school day.”
To improve
- “However, in some foundation subjects, staff do not always highlight or revisit key learning effectively.”
- “This means that some pupils do not build on prior knowledge and achieve as well as they could.”
- “While some staff have very secure phonics knowledge, practice could be strengthened by further developing phonics expertise across the whole staff team to make sure all pupils learn to read as well as they could.”
