Strengths

“Paddox Primary School is a caring and welcoming learning community.”
“Pupils come from many diverse backgrounds and faiths, but all are fully included in school life.”
“At playtimes and in lessons, pupils follow leaders’ high expectations.”

To improve

“However, this is not yet the case across all subjects, or in areas of learning in the early years.”
“This means that teachers cannot accurately check how well pupils’ learning builds over time in these subjects.”
“However, leaders do not ensure that the targets set for these pupils are precise and measurable.”
