Strengths
- “Pupils are very happy at this school, and thrive.”
- “Parents and carers are overwhelmingly positive about the warm welcome given to the children and to themselves.”
- “One parent commented, typical of many, ‘I am very grateful for the love and care taken towards my child’s education and well-being.’”
To improve
- “On occasion, staff do not consistently adapt what they teach well enough to support pupils with SEND in their learning.”
- “As a result, these pupils do not learn as well as they could.”
- “However, where the school has not set out clearly what pupils should know and by when, pupils struggle to build their knowledge over time.”
