Strengths
- “Pupils enjoy attending this vibrant and caring school.”
- “They rise to the high expectations that the school has for their conduct by following the ‘Queensgate Code’.”
- “As a result, pupils consistently demonstrate respect for each other.”
To improve
- “However, occasionally support for pupils who find reading more difficult is not provided quickly and well.”
- “This means that some pupils do not make the progress they should in phonics and their early reading skills.”
- “This is because, in a few subjects, pupils have not mastered the same wide range of knowledge and skills that they have elsewhere in the curriculum.”
