Strengths
- “Hartwell is a warm and welcoming village school.”
- “Pupils are friendly, courteous and respectful towards each other.”
- “They see the importance of good manners.”
To improve
- “However, some say that the school needs to communicate with them more often and in good time.”
- “In some subjects, leaders have not identified the most important things pupils need to be able to recall.”
- “This means that teachers do not precisely link what pupils are learning now to the things they have learned in previous years.”
