Strengths
- “Our Lady and St Edward Primary and Nursery Catholic Voluntary Academy is a school where the mission to ensure that children are ‘kind, respect differences and show compassion to all’ is lived out.”
- “One pupil echoed the views of many when they described the school as a ‘Christian community where all are valued.”
- “Pupils show kindness towards each other.”
To improve
- “However, on occasion, teachers do not present information clearly or ensure that the activities pupils complete help them to learn the curriculum.”
- “Older pupils are not yet routinely helped to develop skills connected to reading, for instance the ability to quickly identify the meaning of a text.”
- “The strategies and targets identified to support pupils with SEND do not always precisely break down what teachers need to do to ensure that all pupils can access the curriculum.”
