School remains Good Inspected 20 April 2023
Strengths
- “Pupils work hard and participate collaboratively in lessons.”
- “They achieve well in a wide range of subjects by the end of Year 6.”
- “This supports them to be well prepared for the next stage of their education.”
To improve
- “While the reading curriculum supports pupils to learn to read throughout the school, a love of reading is not as well promoted in key stage 2.”
- “For some pupils, these inconsistencies lead to a lack of engagement in reading for pleasure, especially among older readers.”
- “However, the experiences that pupils receive are not always planned to routinely enrich and develop their personal development as well as they could.”
