Strengths
- “From the moment pupils join in Year 3, the school promotes and lives out its ‘Dare to Dream’ vision for pupils.”
- “It achieves this through a laser-like focus on academic success.”
- “Typically, the school’s expectations for pupils are high.”
To improve
- “For example, during the pandemic, standards of behaviour declined.”
- “However, sometimes the activities which pupils complete do not help them to deepen and extend their knowledge as well as they could.”
