Strengths
- “This is a school that cares for every pupil.”
- “Relationships between adults and pupils are warm.”
- “There is a culture of respect.”
To improve
- “These foundation subjects now need to be fully embedded to ensure that teachers understand well what pupils are expected to know and remember as they progress through the curriculum.”
- “However, in some subjects, pupils’ ability to remember knowledge over the long-term is not consistent.”
- “This is because sometimes there are limited opportunities for pupils to recall and build on their prior knowledge.”
