Strengths
- “Pupils experience a calm, welcoming and purposeful school environment.”
- “Staff know pupils well and care for them appropriately, which helps pupils feel understood, valued and included.”
- “The pastoral support on offer contributes strongly to pupils’ wellbeing and to the positive culture across the school.”
To improve
- “At times, teachers do not use this information well enough to fully meet all pupils’ needs in lessons.”
- “However, historically they have not always been able to challenge leaders' decisions appropriately.”
- “This has led to some weaker understanding and oversight of some areas related to equality and the progress of disadvantaged pupils.”
