Strengths
- “The school’s values of kindness, respect, courage, curiosity, independence and perseverance underpin pupils’ daily school experience.”
- “They understand the importance of these values and strive to model them.”
- “This creates a culture where, for example, pupils understand that bullying has no place because it conflicts with the value of kindness.”
To improve
- “Subject leaders are beginning to monitor the impact of their subjects, although this process has been hampered by the pandemic.”
- “These needs are well supported in English and mathematics, but occasionally this support is less well considered in foundation subjects.”
