School remains Good Inspected 18 January 2023
Strengths
- “The values of ‘trust, kindness and determination’ pervade this school.”
- “Pupils welcome leaders’ high expectations of their behaviour and conduct.”
- “They know that if they do not uphold the school’s values, they will be challenged by staff.”
To improve
- “However, for some pupils, their needs are not identified precisely enough.”
- “This means that the curriculum is not always successfully adapted for them.”
- “Similarly, the curriculum for some pupils who are in the early stages of learning to read is not as effective as it could be.”
