Requires improvement Inspected 19 September 2023
Strengths
- “Many pupils thrive in this happy and inclusive school.”
- “They benefit from warm and trusting relationships with staff who know them well and provide effective support, helping them to feel safe, valued and included.”
- “Pupils' behaviour is typically calm and purposeful in lessons and at social times, with clear routines which enable pupils to engage well in their learning.”
To improve
- “Pupils' achievement is variable, but it is showing convincing signs of improvement, particularly for younger children in the early years and key stage 1.”
- “However, on occasion, teachers do not check pupils' understanding before moving on.”
- “This means that some pupils have misconceptions that persist.”
