Strengths
- “Pupils at Cherry Lane are polite and welcoming to visitors.”
- “Pupils feel safe and are kept safe at school.”
- “This is because they have trusted adults to speak with and can report any concerns they may have by using the ‘worry box’.”
To improve
- “At times, however, the behaviour of some pupils disrupts learning, and this is not always addressed swiftly.”
- “However, it is not consistently well designed or implemented.”
- “As a result, pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), do not develop a sufficient depth of knowledge.”
