Strengths
- “Pupils enjoy attending St George’s Foundation Primary School.”
- “From the moment pupils arrive at school each day, staff ensure that pupils feel like they belong.”
- “Staff greet families warmly each morning, creating a calm and orderly start to the day.”
To improve
- “Despite this, pupils do not consistently achieve as well as they should.”
- “Nevertheless, leaders rightly recognise their work needs more time to embed for some, particularly for those who are the most vulnerable.”
- “Staff rightly focus on letter and number formation; however, letter positioning is more varied.”
