Strengths
- “Pupils feel welcome and valued at this school.”
- “Relationships between staff and pupils are warm and caring.”
- “The school provides effective pastoral support so that pupils can fully join in with all aspects of school life.”
To improve
- “These have not always resulted in strong outcomes for pupils in the phonics and end of key stage 2 tests.”
- “However, there is currently inconsistency in how well staff introduce and emphasise this vocabulary and in how pupils use it during lessons.”
- “This means that pupils are not always able to recall and apply this language accurately when explaining their learning.”
