Strengths
- “Pupils at The Epiphany School get off to a great start to their education.”
- “They flourish because staff expect the absolute best of them.”
- “Pupils rise to these high expectations.”
To improve
- “However, the school recognises that its work is at an earlier stage in some subjects, including mathematics.”
- “As a result, pupils do not have the same depth of knowledge in these subjects as they do in others.”
