Strengths
- “Pupils flourish at Beaumont Hill Academy.”
- “A sense of community is part of everyday life for pupils and staff.”
- “Well-skilled leaders and staff provide high levels of support for pupils.”
To improve
- “Sometimes, the school is not consistently clear about how some pathways, key concepts and curriculum planning connect together.”
- “This means in a small number of curriculum areas the school’s understanding of the impact across pathways is not as precise as it is in other areas of learning.”
- “However, when teaching phonics, sometimes staff do not use clear and distinct pronunciation of letter sounds.”
