Strengths
- “Pupils enjoy being part of this bilingual school community.”
- “They speak positively about learning in 2 languages and say this helps them understand more about the world and their place within it.”
- “Relationships between pupils and adults are warm, and pupils feel well cared for.”
To improve
- “Pupils’ experiences in lessons are less consistent, however.”
- “While many are keen to learn, too many do not sustain positive attitudes in class.”
- “Low-level disruption, including talking over adults or off-task behaviour, interrupts learning too frequently.”
