Strengths
- “Many pupils enjoy attending this school and value the warm relationships they have with staff.”
- “The school’s ethos: ‘be ready, be kind, be respectful’ plays a significant role in everyday life.”
- “Pupils appreciate the support they are given to help them be successful.”
To improve
- “Leaders are aware that the number of pupils taking the suite of subjects that make up the English Baccalaureate is low.”
- “However, the checks that some teachers make on learning do not consistently pick up where pupils are stuck or where gaps in their knowledge may exist.”
- “When this occurs, it slows pupils’ progress.”
