Strengths

“A wonderful family exists at Buckingham Park.”
“There is strong collaboration between everyone to strive for the very best for pupils.”
“The school’s thoughtfully created environment supports pupils to learn and play, particularly in the early years.”

To improve

“They have recognised the need to start this even earlier in Reception Year.”
“However, the school recognises the need for pupils to get as much reading practice as possible, particularly older pupils impacted by the pandemic.”
“However, while the knowledge pupils will learn over time has been identified, some of the tasks undertaken in lessons do not always help pupils learn as much as they could.”
