School remains Good Inspected 4 October 2023
Strengths
- “This is a happy and successful school.”
- “Staff have high expectations of pupils, both in terms of what they can achieve and how they behave.”
- “Pupils rise to meet these expectations willingly and do well as a result.”
To improve
- “However, this assessment is not yet embedded in some foundation subjects, meaning that, sometimes, the school does not always have the same sense of how pupils are achieving in these subjects, or what they have remembered in the longer term.”
