Strengths
- “This is a school where pupils work hard to show the school’s ‘PROUD’ values.”
- “The value of ‘respect’ is evident in the warm, caring relationships between staff and pupils across the school.”
- “Pupils trust that an adult will listen and help them if they have a worry.”
To improve
- “Leaders have clear actions in place to ensure that a greater proportion of pupils make the required progress in mathematics and reading by the end of Year 6.”
- “However, sometimes the support given to pupils with SEND as they learn the curriculum is not precise enough.”
- “Consequently, some pupils do not achieve as well as they could.”
