Strengths
- “Pupils in this highly ambitious school are taught to ‘aspire, believe and achieve’.”
- “Pupils play well together, treating each other kindly and saying: ‘If someone hasn’t got a smile today, give them one of yours.’”
- “Pupils behave exceptionally well.”
To improve
- “Some curriculum areas are not as well established as others, and here, the activities teachers use do not always help pupils understand and remember what they are learning.”
