Strengths
- “Pupils consider it a privilege to be part of this caring school community.”
- “They describe it as a happy place where they grow in confidence and express their religious identity freely.”
- “Pupils know that the school has high expectations of them.”
To improve
- “However, when this is not the case, the assessment strategies that staff use do not pinpoint the missing knowledge that pupils may have.”
- “This sometimes means that pupils’ gaps and misconceptions go unnoticed by their teachers.”
- “On other occasions, staff move pupils on to new learning without first checking that they have the prior knowledge that they need.”
