Strengths
- “Pupils feel safe at school and cared for by staff.”
- “The small school culture and warm sense of community start from the school’s unique approach to road safety.”
- “The school recognises this and provides experiences to pupils beyond their lived experience in the village.”
To improve
- “Occasionally, some pupils are not as focused as they should be, and staff do not manage this consistently well.”
- “As a result, there are times when lesson time is lost, which slows learning.”
- “In a few subjects, the school’s checks of what pupils know and can do are less well refined.”
