Strengths
- “Pupils are proud of their school and they enjoy their learning here.”
- “They study hard in their lessons, and they look forward to putting their learning into practice on several educational visits.”
- “Pupils form good working relationships with staff from the start of Year 7 and this helps them to feel safe at school.”
To improve
- “However, this level of clarity and coherence in curriculum thinking is not as well developed in a small number of subjects.”
- “As a result, pupils do not develop their knowledge and skills in a way that allows them to fully achieve the ambitious goals the school has in these subjects.”
- “However, the school’s approaches to assessment are not applied consistently in all subjects, and this can mean that pupils’ misunderstandings are not addressed in a timely way.”
