Strengths
- “Leaders have high expectations.”
- “They have created a happy, nurturing environment where ‘children come first’.”

To improve
- “However, in some subjects, the curriculum does not provide teachers with clear information on the order in which the important ideas should be taught.”
- “As a result, pupils do not achieve as well as they could.”
- “Leaders recognise that despite their rigorous actions, there are still a number of pupils who are not attending school regularly and often enough.”
