Strengths
- “Hilmarton is a welcoming and inclusive school.”
- “Staff and pupils have very positive relationships.”
- “The school’s vision for pupils to ‘explore, enjoy and learn’ runs through the curriculum.”
To improve
- “The school recognises that the curriculum needs further embedding so that pupils build on what they already know and deepen their knowledge.”
- “In some subjects, assessment is not always used with enough precision to check what all pupils know and remember and to inform future learning.”
- “This makes it harder for pupils to build their knowledge over time.”
