Strengths
- “Pupils across the school are happy and feel safe.”
- “They have a clear understanding of the school’s motto, ‘all different, all equal and all flourishing’, which is demonstrated in the way they behave towards each other and staff.”
- “Pupils are respectful towards each other and the school is highly inclusive.”
To improve
- “However, sometimes teachers do not check what pupils have learned precisely enough.”
- “This process does not always link closely to the curriculum in some subjects.”
- “This means that at times, teachers are not completely clear about what pupils know, and therefore how the curriculum needs to be adapted subsequently.”
