Ofsted
Good Inspected 8 November 2023
Strengths
- “Pupils at this school are very proud of their diverse community.”
- “They celebrate each other’s faiths and cultures.”
- “This diversity is reflected in all aspects of school life from the curriculum to the ‘Trinity together’ values that encourage pupils to be accepting of difference.”
To improve
- “However, the school is not sufficiently rigorous in identifying the precise nature of the gaps in the reading knowledge of these pupils.”
- “As a result, the help that some pupils receive is not as effective as it could be.”
- “Some older pupils do not receive the support that they need to improve their reading.”
