Strengths
- “Pupils enjoy attending Kings Heath Primary School.”
- “There is plenty on offer for everyone.”
- “Leaders have high ambitions for all pupils, including pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).”
To improve
- “Some subjects are not yet as established as mathematics and phonics.”
- “That said, in some subjects, leaders’ clear vision is not always realised in how teachers deliver the intended learning.”
- “However, small incidents of poor behaviour are not always recorded, leading to missed opportunities for leaders to spot and address any patterns.”
