Strengths
- “Pupils flourish at this calm school.”
- “They are well-mannered and they benefit from the respectful relationships that they enjoy with staff, who care for them well.”
- “Staff provide pupils with a well-considered transition programme.”
To improve
- “In a small number of subjects, staff are not as clear as they should be about what they should teach and when.”
- “As a result, some of the activities that teachers design do not help pupils to achieve as well as they should.”
- “However, some of the school’s strategies used to check pupils’ understanding are at the early stages of development.”
