Strengths
- “King’s Caple Primary Academy is a small school with a big heart, filled with even bigger smiles.”
- “They are proud to be learning in a place they describe as ‘just like one big family’.”
- “Parents and carers, along with governors and staff, share this view and say that it is the sense of community that makes this a special place to be.”
To improve
- “However, in a small number of subjects, the school has not clearly identified the knowledge that pupils must remember.”
- “This makes it harder for teachers to know what to emphasise.”
- “Pupils’ learning is sometimes less secure in these subjects.”
