Strengths
- “The school’s ethos of ‘Learning with Love and Laughter’ filters through everything at ‘The Brook’.”
- “Staff are ambitious for pupils, with high expectations set for both academic development and personal growth.”
- “This inspires pupils to have a positive attitude towards their learning and to achieve well.”
To improve
- “In a small number of subjects, this work is less well developed.”
- “In a small number of subjects, where the curriculum is less developed, work is not as well-matched to what pupils already know, and so learning is less effective.”
- “However, wider opportunities beyond the curriculum for pupils to develop their talents and interests are limited.”
