Strengths
- “Leaders have introduced a revised early years curriculum alongside raised expectations for teaching and learning.”
- “Pupils achieve well at the end of key stage 2.”
- “They enjoy coming to school and develop a keen sense of belonging here.”
To improve
- “Children in the early years do not achieve as well as they should.”
- “This is because, too often, staff do not help children to develop and embed their communication and language skills effectively enough.”
- “In addition, the activities staff provide are not well matched to children's developmental needs.”
