School remains Good Inspected 17 May 2023
Strengths
- “Pupils are happy and confident at school.”
- “They feel safe, attend well and arrive promptly.”
- “They are focused and industrious in lessons.”
To improve
- “Sometimes subject leaders do not get enough guidance and opportunity to find out how well teachers are delivering the curriculum.”
- “This means they do not always know if teachers are doing things in the intended way or to the same standard as leaders would expect.”
- “However, the curriculum content does not provide sufficient opportunities for pupils to apply their English skills routinely enough.”
