Strengths
- “Everyone feels welcome at Mount Pleasant Primary School.”
- “Leaders, including governors, have worked relentlessly to create an inclusive culture.”
- “Pupils are proud to sing the school anthem ‘Think Big, Aim High, ACHIEVE’.”
To improve
- “However, some pupils do not always demonstrate these positive behaviours during lunchtimes.”
- “In these subjects, the exact knowledge that leaders want pupils to remember is not clear.”
- “Pupils struggle to explain concepts such as ‘empire’ because there is too much new information for them to recall.”
