Strengths
- “Brookland School provides a calm and nurturing environment for pupils to learn in.”
- “The school sets high expectations to help pupils settle and be ready to reconnect with education.”
- “For many pupils, this is their first successful school experience in a long time.”
To improve
- “However, in a very small number of subjects, the school is still finalising the specific knowledge that they want pupils to learn.”
- “As a result, some pupils do not know and remember these curriculums as well as they should.”
- “However, in some subjects, teachers’ checks do not cover the precise content that pupils have learned.”
