Strengths
- “Pupils are proud of their school.”
- “They understand the school’s values of ‘love, respect and perseverance’ and talk about these confidently.”
- “Pupils learn to keep themselves healthy, such as through healthy meal choices, and know how to stay safe online.”
To improve
- “However, in some subjects, staff are less precise in the checks they make on what pupils know and remember.”
- “This can mean pupils have gaps in their knowledge or understanding that go unnoticed and so unaddressed.”
- “When this happens, some pupils do not build on their prior knowledge as securely as they could.”
