Strengths
- “Pupils are proud to be part of the Wavendon Gate School community.”
- “They enjoy coming to school and tackling the challenges of the school’s ambitious and interesting curriculum.”
- “Pupils benefit from a wide range of different trips and visitors to enhance their experiences in school.”
To improve
- “In a small number of subjects, for instance in art and design and in computing, leaders have not outlined this content in enough detail.”
- “In a small number of areas, leaders are yet to plan the small steps of learning that will support children’s development.”
- “However, at times and particularly where schemes of work are new, teachers do not adapt their teaching well enough to meet all pupils’ needs.”
