Strengths
- “Pupils enjoy coming to this village primary school.”
- “They know the school rules, ‘ready, respectful and safe,’ and why they are important.”
- “In lessons, pupils respond well to adults and each other.”
To improve
- “However, outside of lessons, this is not always the case.”
- “During break times pupils are less respectful of one another, and some become too boisterous.”
- “Although pupils say that adults deal with these incidents, the intervention does not always prevent the behaviour from happening again.”
